Tenuta Paolo Scavino, Barolo Ravera 2017

Tenuta Paolo Scavino’s Barolo Ravera 2017 is a precise, terroir-driven expression of Nebbiolo from one of Barolo’s most admired historic estates. Sourced from the Ravera cru, it combines power, finesse, and remarkable clarity, reflecting both the character of the site and the estate’s long-standing focus on individual vineyard expression.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, this Barolo typically shows a deep garnet hue with brick-red reflections typical of Nebbiolo. The nose is layered and refined, offering aromas of red cherry, raspberry, dried rose petals, licorice, tobacco, and subtle earthy spice, with mineral undertones that speak to the cru. On the palate, it is structured and focused, with firm yet polished tannins, bright acidity, and a core of vibrant red fruit balanced by savory depth. The finish is long and persistent, with the concentration and balance needed for excellent aging potential; this is a wine that can develop beautifully over many years, gaining complexity and nuance.

Production
Ravera is one of the prized crus of Barolo, known for producing wines with structure, aromatic precision, and ageworthiness. Paolo Scavino works with carefully selected parcels and a vinification approach designed to preserve the identity of each vineyard, allowing the distinct character of the terroir to come through clearly in the finished wine.

Food & Serving
This Barolo is a natural match for braised meats, truffle dishes, risotto with porcini, game, and aged cheeses. Serve at around 16–18°C, and decant for at least 1–2 hours when young to help the wine open up and show its full aromatic and textural complexity.

Producer
Founded in 1921 in Castiglione Falletto, Tenuta Paolo Scavino is one of Barolo’s benchmark producers and remains a family-run estate today under Enrico Scavino and his daughters, Enrica and Elisa. With a philosophy that blends deep respect for terroir with modern winemaking precision, the estate is known for crafting elegant, expressive Barolos from both its own vineyards and a broad selection of historic cru sites across the region.
