Barolo Bric del Fiasc 2021 Paolo Scavino

Professionele reviews

Robert Parker (96)

The Paolo Scavino 2021 Barolo Bric dël Fiasc, from a 2.5-hectare site in Castiglione Falletto on a southwest-facing slope, shows an especially rich and textured side with aromas of dark fruit that are accented by clove, cinnamon, spice and even a hint of bitter chocolate. This is a bold expression of Nebbiolo with elegantly managed tannins that are quite firm and need ample time to resolve.

James Suckling (97)

This is dusty, with dried flowers, dark cherries and a hint of spices on the nose. The palate is medium- to full-bodied with lots of succulent fruit framed by polished, powdery tannins that dissipate gradually, showing persistent fruit flavors. Outstanding.

Jancis Robinson (17.50)

Pale garnet. Very direct perfume whistles right up the nose. Pure and whistle-clean. Dry finish. Quite delicate. The sort of wine you wouldn’t find anywhere else in the world. (JR)
