Note di degustazione
The 2013 Barolo Bricco Ambrogio is laced with the essence of dark wild cherry, tobacco, scorched earth, grilled herbs and dried flowers. Aromatically beguiling, the Bricco Ambrogio is pliant and supple, with lovely up-front fruit and fine persistence. As always, the Bricco Ambrogio is the most forward of Scavino’s single-vineyard Barolos. Even so, the translucent, gracious style of the year is very much in evidence.

The beautiful 2013 Barolo Bricco Ambrogio comes from the Scavino family's biggest single-vineyard parcel that measures five hectares. This is a more structured and tannic expression of Nebbiolo that could use a few extra years of cellar aging to move it forward. The wine sports thick concentration and luscious fruit flavors that peel off in thick and succulent layers. Blackberry is followed by dried cherry, leather and spice. Only a handful (maybe five?) producers make Barolo from Bricco Ambrogio. This is a seriously gorgeous wine.
Roddi. Lustrous mid ruby with orange tinges. A touch more evident oak on the nose than the Carobric. Succulent red fruit with bags of crunchy tannins. Just a little bit of drying (oak) tannins on the finish, but this is elegant as well as powerful and long, if a little oaky for now. (WS)
Intense aromas of stones, slate, dried strawberries and lemons. Full body, chewy tannins and a powerful finish. Shows great depth and intensity. Better in 2021. Jan 2017, www.jamessuckling.com
