Barolo 2021 Paolo Scavino

Professional reviews

Robert Parker (94)

o be released in January 2025, the Paolo Scavino 2021 Barolo is bright and vivid, showing the focus and character of the vintage. This sample is still quite tight, and the tannins are firmly knit. However, the tannins are more elegant and silkier in the 2021 compared to 2020. I recommend giving this wine more time in bottle to allow it to fully flesh out.

James Suckling (93)

Restrained and compact nose with vibrant violets and dried cherries, refreshed by pomegranate and oak bark. Full-bodied on the palate with a sold backbone of tannins that turn dusty and drier on the finish. Crisp acidity and an austere aftertaste.

Jancis Robinson (17)

Pale garnet. Heady, rather arresting nose. Lots of fruit here and then real grip. GV? Tasty, with some real juice before the tarry tannin. (JR)
