Tasting note
The Scavino family, owners of Azienda Azelia in Castiglione Falletto, cultivates vineyards at seven top locations in Castiglione Falletto and Serralunga d'Alba. The oldest vines are over 100 years old — the rare vineyard wines such as San Rocco, Bricco Fiasco or Voghera come from them. The basic Barolo is always obtained from the grapes of younger vines — which, however, are at least 25 years old. It comes from the same vineyards as the single-vineyard Baroli, but is deliberately understood as the company's calling card: precisely defined, finely chiselled, balanced and remarkably smooth. A classic Barolo with depth and finesse — and already a great drinking pleasure.
Culinary recommendation
Goes well with lamb, beef, veal, venison, pork, grilled meat
Vinification
Die Vinifikation fand wie folgt statt: Nebst Lagenweinen keltert Luigi Scavino auch einen vorzüglichen Barolo, den er aus den beiden Gemeinden Serralunga d’Alba und Castiglione Falletto assembliert. 4,5 Hektaren stehen ihm dafür zur Verfügung. Die Südwestlagen sind von Kalk und Lehm geprägt. Das durchschnittliche Alter der Reben beträgt 40 Jahre. Die Beeren werden bei 30 Grad Celsius während 20 Tagen vergoren, der Jungwein wird anschliessend für zwei Jahre im grossen Holzfass ausgebaut.
