They have farmed a small parcel (under one hectare) since 2000, and the grapes were previously added to their “classico” Barolo blend. In 2006, Monvigliero became its own single-vineyard expression because Enrico Scavino always had a big passion for this site. The 2015 Barolo Monvigliero is a bright and beautiful wine with a strong floral signature of violets and roses that accompanies this wine from start to finish. The wine is very characteristic of Monvigliero in terms of the softness and silky nature of the tannins as well.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(255, 42, 0);\"\u003e93 points Vinous Media\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eDrinking window: 2020 - 2035\u003cbr\u003eThe 2015 Barolo Monvigliero is undoubtedly a pretty wine, even if it appears to be somewhat of a work in progress. Bright floral notes, spice and sweet red cherry\/plum fruit give the Monvigliero considerable immediacy as well as appeal. Even so, my impression is that the best is yet to come for this bottling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cem\u003eScavino’s 2015 Barolos are a big step up from the 2014s, but my impression based on what I have tasted from more recent vintages is that the best is yet to come. Over the years, the Scavinos have acquired parcels in a number of top sites. This is going to be a fascinating range to follow in the coming years and decades.\u003c\/em\u003e - \u003cstrong\u003eGalloni August 2019\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Barolo","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67944688746630,"sku":"KS-SCAV-BAR-MONVIG-15-MAG","price":249.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0075\/0338\/0543\/files\/watermarked_img_7487541475462043253.webp?v=1794511489","url":"https:\/\/www.winesolutions.com\/products\/paolo-scavino-barolo-monvigliero-2015-1-5l-1","provider":"Wine Solutions","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
