Depth and grace define the 2016 Paolo Scavino Barolo Rocche dell'Annunziata Riserva, which layers pure red cherry and raspberry fruit with rose, sweet spices, tobacco and a delicate herbal lift. The palate is full and concentrated yet wonderfully composed, with dense, silky tannins and a long, precise finish that carries fruit, spice and mineral notes in effortless balance. This vintage stands out for its combination of intensity and poise, promising both early charm and decades of evolution.

Paolo Scavino’s Barolo Rocche dell’Annunziata Riserva is the estate’s single‑cru Riserva from the historic Rocche dell’Annunziata site in La Morra (south‑southeast exposure, ~385 m) made from 100% Nebbiolo on sandy, calcareous soils and produced only in top vintages. Extended aging (barriques and large casks) and careful vinification yield a refined, perfumed Barolo—rose, violet and sweet red‑cherry aromas over crushed stone and mint, with silken tannins, lithe acidity and an elegant, mineral finish.
