"The nose of Scavino's flagship Barolo is less exuberant than that of Monvigliero, but it shows luxurious raspberry fruit and an intriguing iron-like note too. The attack is suave and velvety, spicy and intense, with fine acidity. It displays grandeur and weight of fruit, and the tannins contribute texture as well as grip. Very long and effortlessly balanced."

"The 2019 Barolo Bric del Fiasc is a gorgeous wine in the making. Deep, fleshy and wonderfully nuanced, the 2019 offers up an exotic mélange of kirsch, pomegranate, baking spice and a kick of new oak. Often quite the tannic beast, in 2019, the Bric del Fiasc is impeccable in its balance. The rich, substantial finish is a thing of beauty. Best of all, the 2019 should drink well relatively early for this wine."

"A supple, graceful red announced by rose, cherry, licorice, iron and white pepper aromas and flavors. This is no pushover, however, with a layer of dense, pointed tannins that resonate on the long aftertaste. Shows excellent balance and complexity. Best from 2027 through 2046. 675 cases made, 203 cases imported."
