Energy and perfume define the 2021 Paolo Scavino Bussia Vigna Fantini, a Barolo that lifts from the glass with vivid red berries, blue-tinged fruits and a cascade of roses and violets before moving into licorice, spice and cool mint tones. The palate is full and concentrated yet feels almost weightless, with layered raspberry and dark cherry flavors wrapped in velvety but assertive tannins and driven by bright, mouthwatering acidity toward a long, savory, balsamic-tinged finish. A thrilling, structured debut that clearly speaks of a high, cooler Bussia site and promises superb evolution in bottle.
