Paolo Scavino Barolo MasterClass
Join us for a Barolo masterclass led by Roberto Boggione of Paolo Scavino, one of Piemonte’s most dynamic and terroir-driven estates. This tasting will spotlight the highly anticipated 2022 Barolos, offering a rare opportunity to explore a vintage that has defied expectations.
Following the hallowed 2021 vintage in Piedmont, 2022 presented a far more challenging growing season. Early reports painted a bleak picture, but as the first 2022s began to emerge, both winemakers and critics were delighted. The 2022 Barolos are proving to be beautifully expressive-they combine approachability with precision, offering vibrant acidity, layered fruit, and sculpted tannins that promise both early charm and solid aging potential.
The modern story of Paolo Scavino began in 1978, when Enrico Scavino, son of Paolo, urged his father to bottle their first single-vineyard Barolo from the esteemed Bric dël Fiasc vineyard in Castiglione Falletto. That decision proved transformative. Bric dël Fiasc went on to become the estate’s flagship wine, a benchmark expression of site and a defining label in the Scavino portfolio to this day.
Now in its fourth generation of family leadership, Paolo Scavino continues to unite innovation with deep-rooted tradition. The Scavino family today farms 30 hectares across 20 distinct plots within some of Barolo’s most celebrated crus.
During this masterclass, guests will taste a curated selection of 2022 Barolos, including single-vineyard crus including Ravera, Prapo and Monvigliero while exploring the nuances of the growing season and how adversity shaped the wines. The experience will place the vintage in context alongside recent years, offering insight into where 2022 stands stylistically.
