Paolo Scavino – Barolo Cannubi – 2018

Certainly the most famous type of Barolo in the world, with such a unique style and taste as to be one of the most sought after wines in the world. We are located in Barolo, in the Cannubi cru, with vineyards planted in 1946 and having an excellent exposure towards south-east where the combination of sandy/clayey soils and the very low yields give origin to unique wines. After harvesting, grapes are vinified with submerged cap in steel tanks at controlled temperature with indigenous yeasts before being aged in wood. Refinement is done in new and used barriques for the first 10 months, followed by 12 months in large casks and then further 10 months in steel tanks and 10 months in bottle. The wine obtained from this process summarizes the expression of a terroir son of time, made of complex and enveloping aromas with fine and elegant tannins. Pure harmony.

Description

Among the most renowned names at international level for the production of the historic Barolo wine, Paolo Scavino could not be missing. The winery was founded in 1921, in Castiglione Falletto, by Lorenzo Scavino and his son Paolo who started cultivating the famous local varieties such as Dolcetto, Barbera and Nebbiolo. But it is with Enrico Scavino’s arrival that the valorization of Nebbiolo began, differentiating the areas where it was noticed the higher quality of the grape by purchasing plots in other communes of the Barolo area, in the most suited Cru such as Monvigliero, Cannubi, Bussia, Rocche dell’Annunziata. Since 1978, it was decided to vinify separately the Cru, where Bric del Fiasc became the first single vineyard of the winery as the soils composed by sand and fossil marl, called Tov, were the most valuable grapes. Today with 32 hectares divided in 8 communes, it is possible to breathe a tradition handed down in the vineyards for decades, arrived at the 4th generation with the idea of a viticulture superior to enology, of a devotion towards work with the purpose of reaching the interpretation and the purity of the territorial essence. Committed to a production of absolute quality, the use of chemical elements in the environment and the work in the cellar, where the use of mainly barriques in the vinification have made it a pioneer of this style. Care and Passion are the pillars of one of the most renowned and inspired realities of the Piedmontese enological scene.
