Paolo Scavino Bricco Ambrogio 2018 - 1.5 Litre Bottle

1 unit available online.
Product description

The Bricco Ambrogio is the sole geographic mention in Roddi village and yields lovely Barolos with intense floral aromatics, freshness and finesse.

Bricco Ambrogio has an intense and multifaceted aromatic spectrum. The core is soft and polished through a beautiful acid-tannic balance. There is an underlying depth in this Barolo and the finish is long and nuanced.

94 Points - James Suckling

An attractive nose, with dense floral notes to color the ripe red berries and cherries. Hints of white nuts and apricot skins add to the appeal. The same enticing fruit mix on the palate, too, with an easy bed of fine but loosely knit tannin that adds a luxurious note to the mouth-feel. All in all, this is quite an extravagant Barolo with loads to like now, but should age gracefully.

93 Points - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

With fruit from Roddi, the 2018 Barolo Bricco Ambrogio is open-knit and broad, and its aromas focus on dark fruit, ripe cherry and plum. This vintage does not have the extreme aromatic definition that we saw in past vintages, but it delivers a long and polished mouthfeel nonetheless. Best After 2024.
