A very floral wine with aromas of fresh roses, cherry stones, licorice and smoke. Very fresh on the palate, almost zesty, with a medium to full body, tight yet ripe tannins and an aftertaste of licorice and tobacco. Try after 2027.

Wine Advocate

You feel the dark fruit intensity of Novello in the Paolo Scavino 2021 Barolo Ravera. This is a very fine and well-constructed wine with layers of ripe cherry, iris root, crushed stone and licorice. The tannins are powdery, but the wine's structure remains firm and intact. Ravera promises a long life but remains attractive and accessible in the medium term, should you choose to uncork this bottle sooner.

Vinous

The 2021 Barolo Ravera is captures all the signatures of this site. Iron, white pepper, sage, mint, chalk and red-toned fruit all grace this sculpted, vibrant young Barolo. I especialy admire its energy and tension. Clean mineral notes support the bracing finish. Readers should plan on cellaring the 2021 for at least a few years.

Notes

Paolo Scavino’s Ravera Barolo 2021 is a bold yet refined expression of this esteemed cru in Novello, known for its structure and longevity. The nose is deeply aromatic, revealing layers of red cherry, wild berries, and dried rose, complemented by notes of licorice, crushed stone, and sweet spice. The palate is firm and precise, offering vibrant red fruit, earthy minerality, and finely structured tannins, all balanced by fresh acidity. A long, poised finish lingers with hints of balsamic and cedar. A powerful, age-worthy Barolo with remarkable elegance, perfect for braised meats and truffle dishes.
