WINE MAKING PROCESS
The winemaking process for Paolo Scavino Barolo Bric dël Fiasc 2019 emphasizes delicate extraction from the Nebbiolo grape skins during fermentation to achieve refined tannins. Following fermentation, the wine is aged for approximately two years. This aging period utilizes a combination of large oak casks ('botti') and smaller barrels, with the intention of integrating oak notes without masking the wine's inherent fruit character. The 2019 vintage benefited from a growing season that provided optimal conditions for ripeness and balance.
