Paolo Scavino, Barolo Monvigliero other_regions Grown on white volcanic ash

Grown on white volcanic ash soil

There is good punch and solid density to the muscular medium weight plus flavors that coat the mouth on the lightly stony and youthfully austere finish

It was bottled in July 2019

The exceptions are the Baroli Voerzio bottled only in magnums (Sarmassa and Vecchie Viti dei Capalot e delle Brunate)

This problem did not occur in 2012

Paolo Scavino, Barolo Monvigliero other_regions Grown on white volcanic ashOne of the highlights in this range, the 2013 Barolo Monvigliero is creamy, sweet and also unusually supple for a young Barolo. Hints of rose petal, dried herb, cedar and sweet pipe tobacco gradually open up in a wine that is more giving on the palate than it is in its aromatics. The 2013 needs time for the classic Monvigliero perfume to emerge fully. There is more than enough precision, energy and tension to make me think that will come in time.
