Paolo Scavino Barolo Rocche dell`Annunziata Riserva 1997 is a full-bodied, single-vineyard Nebbiolo red wine from the Barolo appellation of Piedmont, northern Italy. Enrico Scavino has for decades been a tireless seeker of refinement of his family`s wines, even designing a bespoke fermentation vessel used exclusively for his Barolos. Each of the family`s Barolo vineyard parcels is vinified separately, allowing them the greatest possible control over the final wine. Enrico is now supported in the running of the business by his daughters Elisa and Enrica. On the 1997 Barolo Rocche dell`Annunziata Riserva. "Very dark ruby. Wonderful aromas of roses, blackberry, violet and liquorice. Full-bodied, with velvety tannins and lots of juicy fruit. Turns to fresh mushroom on the finish. Balanced and pretty. Just coming around." Wine Spectator, 2007

The soft-textured, open 1997 Rocche dell`Annunziata (3-liter) is another beautiful wine. Showing plenty of super-ripe fruit, tar and licorice nuances and a lush personality it nevertheless has plenty of underlying structure as well as balance. It is a great choice for current drinking and its slightly more evolved aromas and flavors suggest it will reach full maturity sooner than the other vintages in this flight. - Antonio Galloni
