Paolo Scavino Carobric Barolo 2015 is a masterful representation of Piedmont’s prestigious winemaking tradition, blending the nuanced terroirs of Cannubi in Barolo, Rocche dell’Annunziata in La Morra, and Bric dël Fiasc in Castiglione Falletto. This distinct fusion of three historically significant vineyards creates a wine of extraordinary complexity, marrying power with elegance in a way that epitomizes the essence of Barolo.

The 2015 vintage stands out as one of the best in recent history, marked by ideal climatic conditions that delivered balanced acidity, ripe fruit concentration, and remarkable aging potential. This Barolo reveals an intense aromatic profile bursting with ripe red cherries, wild berries, and delicate floral undertones, complemented by refined layers of sweet spices, leather, and tobacco. On the palate, it presents a full-bodied structure with finely grained tannins, culminating in a long, persistent finish that highlights its depth and sophistication.

Critically acclaimed and awarded 97 points by James Suckling, the Carobric 2015 is sourced from a premium private cellar, reflecting the dedication and expertise of Paolo Scavino, a winery renowned for crafting some of Barolo’s finest Nebbiolo wines. This vintage exemplifies the region’s hallmark balance between power and finesse, making it a benchmark for elegant Barolo expressions.

Key highlights include:

  • The Carobric blend originates from three complex and historic sites: Cannubi, Rocche dell’Annunziata, and Bric dël Fiasc.
  • Exceptional 2015 vintage known for its concentration, vibrant acidity, and longevity.
  • Highly rated with 97 points from James Suckling, underscoring its quality and aging potential.
  • Produced by Paolo Scavino, a celebrated Barolo estate committed to traditional craftsmanship and terroir expression.

Experience a wine that embodies the unique character of Piedmont’s finest vineyards, combining heritage, precision, and exceptional terroir to deliver a Barolo that is as powerful as it is refined. The Paolo Sc

Reviews

Dried berries, rose petals, rose stems, tar, cedar and tobacco. Structured and very serious indeed on the palate, where chewy tannins caress, but also strengthen the vibrant but dried red fruit that permeates this red. Drink in 2023.
The 2018 vintage will be the last edition made of this wine. The Scavino family lost its lease in Cannubi, and the estate wine portfolio is being redrawn as a result. The 2015 Barolo Carobric remains a blend of fruit from Rocche di Castiglione (60%), Cannubi (20%) and Bric dël Fiasc (20%). That blend has been carefully contemplated, and the absence of the Cannubi changes the formula too drastically. Cannubi adds richness and flavor to the blend, while Rocche di Castiglione with its sandy soils adds delicate mineral and light fruit nuances. Bric dël Fiasc offers both power and elegance and is the proverbial glue that keeps harmony between the two sides. This wine was first produced in 1996, and the end of an important chapter in the Scavino family legacy is upon us.
