Enrico Scavino's 2000s must be considered among the successes of the vintage. At the time, the wines were made with short fermentations lasting just four days, if not a little less. Stylistically the wines are among Scavino's most modern Baroli. The 2000s won't appeal to all readers, but there is little question the wines have aged exquisitely. I tasted all of the wines from magnum, but lest readers think that was an overwhelming factor in how these wines showed, the most backward wine was the Cannubi, and it was the only wine I tasted from bottle!

We then moved into a deep selection of vintages of Scavino's most famous Barolo, Bric del Fiasc, which was first produced in 1978. The vineyard is located in Castiglione Falletto and the wines from this plot are generally the biggest and most structured of the estate's lineup. In important vintages Bric del Fiasc requires at least several years of cellaring. Today vintages 1989 and 1990 appear to still be fresh and youthful and my guess is that recent vintages will age at least as well given that they were made from lower yields and with a much greater sense of awareness towards other factors affecting quality.

"In terms of quality, 2001 is very good, one point higher than 2000," says Enrico Scavino. "In 2001 we had the advantage of a bit of rain in August, which really helped the nebbiolo and gave the wines a better balance than the 2000s. "Scavino's winemaking technique continues to evolve. Beginning with the 1999 vintage, he has moved his Barolos out of barriques and into large Taransaud casks after their first year of aging because he decided that two years in small barrels was too much. Scavino also noted that beginning with the '96 vintage he increased the duration of his fermentations (to seven or eight days) because he felt that his earlier vintages were too soft and did not have enough tannic support. Scavino was in the process of redoing his winery at the time of my visit, with the objectives of making more extensive use of gravity to avoid tiring the wines, gaining better control of temperature through all phases of vinification and elevage, and creating the proper environment to keep a large wine library.
