The 2009 Paolo Scavino Bric dël Fiasc Barolo, from a warmer vintage, presents a rich and powerful profile. On the nose, expect intense aromas of ripe red cherries, dried roses, tar, licorice, and hints of savory spice and forest floor. The palate is full-bodied and concentrated, with a core of dark fruit, firm yet integrated tannins, and bright acidity that provides structure and freshness. The finish is exceptionally long, echoing with complex notes of menthol, earth, and dried herbs.
