The 2018 Barolo Ravera is a relatively soft wine for this site. It offers fine aromatic complexity, but not quite the depth or persistence of the very best years. As such, it will drink well with minimal cellaring. Touches of cedar, dried cherry, pipe tobacco and mint linger.

Moving over to Novello, the Paolo Scavino 2018 Barolo Ravera is slightly more simplistic in this vintage with a tart cherry element that opens loud over the bouquet. You might also notice crushed white pepper, salty limestone and crushed earth. The wine remains subtle in texture with silky tannins and medium weight. Some 6,500 bottles were made.
