Azelia Collection

A Heritage of Five Generations Azelia is a quintessential family-owned estate located in the heart of the Langhe, specifically in Castiglione Falletto. Established in 1920 by Cavalier Lorenzo Scavino, the winery is now led by Luigi Scavino and his son Lorenzo. The Scavino family has spent over a century refining their craft, managing a small but prestigious portfolio of vineyards that include some of the most historic crus in Barolo. Azelia is defined by its "small production" philosophy, where every vine is tended with the care of a garden, and every bottle reflects the authentic identity of the soil.

The Philosophy: Respect for the Land Azelia bridges the gap between traditional soul and modern precision. By maintaining exceptionally low yields and practicing meticulous canopy management, the family ensures that only the highest quality fruit reaches the cellar.

• Meticulous Viticulture: The estate manages 16 hectares of vineyards, many of which are home to "Old Vines" (over 60 years old). These deep-rooted plants produce wines with extraordinary concentration and mineral depth.

• On the Palate: Azelia’s wines are renowned for their impeccable balance. Expect the classic Nebbiolo structural power—firm tannins and bright acidity—softened by a velvety texture and pure aromatics of red rose, liquorice, and wild berries.

The Crown Jewels of the Estate Our collection features the most celebrated bottlings from the Azelia cellar, known for their remarkable aging potential:

• Barolo DOCG: The estate's flagship, crafted from old vines across several premium plots. It is an elegant, approachable entry into the world of Scavino craftsmanship.

• Barolo Bricco Fiasco: A legendary Cru in Castiglione Falletto. This wine is prized for its floral elegance, finesse, and incredibly silky tannins.

• Barolo San Rocco: Sourced from the Serralunga d’Alba region, this wine offers a more robust, powerful, and structured profile with deep notes of dark fruit and spice.

• Barolo Margheria: Another Serralunga gem, known for its striking minerality and "savory" complexity.

• Dolcetto & Barbera: High-quality everyday expressions that showcase the family's dedication to quality across all Piedmontese varieties.

A Commitment to Consistency Azelia remains a "cult favorite" among Italian wine enthusiasts because of its incredible consistency. Year after year, the Scavino family produces wines that are technically flawless yet deeply emotional. For the collector seeking a Barolo that combines power with the ethereal elegance of Castiglione Falletto, Azelia is a foundational choice.
