Paolo Scavino - Barolo Bricco Ambrogio 2016 (750ml)
The most important vineyard in the village of Roddi. Made for the first time in 2002 and nearly a monopole. Perfumed generous in its expression and soft texture."
Wine Advocate: 94 Points
From the comune or village of Roddi the Paolo Scavino 2016 Barolo Bricco Ambrogio offers an open-knit and accessible personality. The bouquet of this wine is very distinctive offering some cedar spice and toasted hazelnut that you don't get in the other Baroli in the collection from the Scavino family. Those nutty aromas cede to dark fruit plum spice and grilled herb. The wine is beautifully put together showing the classic balance and energy of the vintage.

The 2016 Barolo Bricco Ambrogio is very pretty in 2016. Medium in body and supple the Bricco Ambrogio captures all of the personality of the year in a mid-weight style that makes it easy to drink and enjoy young. The balance of fruit acid and structure is just superb here. Pretty floral and spice overtones add nuance. Bricco Ambrogio is always the most accessible of the Scavino cru Barolos. The 2016 is the finest wine from this site yet. -- Antonio Galloni
