A Celebration of Nebbiolo:
The 2010 vintage in Barolo was truly spectacular. A long, even growing season, with "the right weather at the right time.", says Franco Massolino. These were "the best conditions for Nebbiolo", notes Elio Grasso. The Barolos we have tasted at Renegade Wines have stunned us. They are seductive now, and surprisingly approachable after only 4 years, but these treasures will age gracefully for decades. This is a dream vintage for enthusiasts & collectors alike. Again and again the vintners of Barolo have stated this simple line: "...one of the best vintages of my life."

2010 Barolo Arriving Soon:
These wines will sell out quick, so order today.
(June-September Arrival)
 
2010 Paolo Scavino Barolo Bric dël Fiasc $88
Antonio Galloni - 95 pts, Dark red fruit, iron, smoke, incense and orange peel are some of the many notes that flesh out in the 2010 Barolo Bric del Fiasc. A deep, fleshy Barolo, the Bric del Fiasc is incredibly polished and refined, with perhaps a bit less power than previous vintages, but more in the way of finesse.

 
2010 Paolo Scavino Barolo Carobric $78
Antonio Galloni - 96 pts, Wine House - Scavino's 2010 Barolo Carobric stands out for its focus and clarity. Sweet red berries, mint, crushed rocks and rose petals are some of the many notes that take shape in the glass. The 2010 Carobric is bright, aromatically lifted and gorgeous in its precision. Today the 2010 is an infant, but it has gorgeous intensity and length. All the elements are in the right place.
 
2010 Paolo Scavino Barolo Monvigliero $68
Antonio Galloni - 95+ pts, Wine House - A round, supple Barolo, the 2010 Barolo Monvigliero
is beautifully expressive. Today the Monvigliero is incredibly primary and intense, especially in its fruit, while the typical Monvigliero notes aren't fully developed. The 2010 is going to need some time to come together, but it is a beauty. With time in the glass some of the more floral and savory notes that are typical of this site begin to emerge, but only with great reluctance. Today the Monvigliero impresses for its texture, silkiness and exceptional overall balance.
