Paolo Scavino has knocked the 2021 Barolo vintage out of the park and the firm's Ravera is another impressive showing. It opens with alluring aromas of ripe dark-skinned fruit, iris, menthol and star anise while the delicious, full-bodied palate delivers succulent Marasca cherry, raspberry tart, licorice, cinnamon and crushed mint. Tightly woven, velvety tannins provide seamless support while fresh acidity keeps it vibrant and together they give the wine a weightless concentration despite that belies its impressive structure.
