Reserved for only the very finest vintages, the 2013 Barolo Riserva Bric dël Fiasc Museum Release has remained in the Scavino cellars, maturing under ideal conditions before its release.
This is Barolo at its most complete—beautifully evolved, yet still possessing decades of life ahead.
The magnificent 2013 vintage is regarded as one of Piedmont's modern classics, producing Nebbiolo of extraordinary precision, elegance and ageing potential.
Tasting Notes
Expect a profoundly complex Barolo with:
- Wild cherry and dark raspberry
- Red plum and blood orange
- Dried rose petals and violets
- Liquorice and sweet spice
- Ironstone, graphite and crushed rock
- Truffle, tobacco and fine earthy complexity
The palate is incredibly layered and refined. Beautifully mature Nebbiolo fruit is framed by silky yet persistent tannins, vibrant acidity and extraordinary mineral precision. Every sip reveals another dimension before finishing with remarkable length and elegance.
Time has softened the youthful structure while preserving the energy that makes great Barolo so compelling.
