PAOLO SCAVINO BAROLO BRICO AMB is a distinguished red wine from the renowned Barolo region in Piedmont, Italy. This Nebbiolo-based wine exhibits a complex flavor profile with notes of dark cherry, lavender, sage, menthol and licorice. This is impeccably done, not to mention very tasty with earthy undertones, complemented by floral hints and robust tannins, characteristic of Barolo’s terroir. Bricco Ambrogio has an intense and multifaceted aromatic spectrum. The core is soft and polished through a beautiful acid-tannic balance. There is an underlying depth in this Barolo and the finish is long and nuanced. Enrico Scavino’s experience, recognized the quality of this undiscovered beautiful cru and decided to purchase it in 2001. By luck this cru was the only one of the estate untouched by the hail in 2002 and debuted as a solo showing lots of personality and potential.
For optimal enjoyment, serve this wine at a temperature between 60-65°F (15-18°C). Pair it with rich dishes such as braised meats, truffles, or aged cheeses to enhance its flavors. Decanting for at least 30 minutes prior to serving can also help to soften its tannins and reveal its aromatic depth.
