Information sur le domaine

Le domaine Azelia est encore un secret que partagent les passionnés de Barolos. Bien que le domaine ne soit pas très médiatisé, le propriétaire, Luigi Scavino (le cousin d’Enrico Scavino du domaine Paolo Scavino), partage la propriété de la célèbre colline de Fiasco avec Scavino, en plus des terres de San Rocco, à Serralunga. Fondée en 1920 par le grand-père Luigi, la ferme familiale de Scavino est située dans le village de Castiglione Falletto. Luigi élabore tous ses vins au...

Antonio Galloni, Février 2020 (Millésime 2016)

The 2016 Barolo Bricco Fiasco is a glorious wine. Sweet red cherry, mint, iron, rose petal and blood orange are some of the many aromas and flavors that grace this exquisite, beautifully layered Barolo. A wine of subtlety, nuance and grace, the 2016 has so much to offer. I don't remember ever tasting a Bricco Fiasco with this level of finesse and nuance. Two thousand sixteen is the first vintage in which the Bricco Fiasco is aged part in cask and part in barrique. All I can say is: Wow!

Juillet 2021

A firm, fine-grained red with plum, mahogany, iron and bark on the nose and palate. It’s full-bodied with a dusty texture from the tannins. Flavorful finish. Needs time to soften, but a beautiful young Barolo.

Septembre 2020 (Millésime 2016)

Fresh flowers with strawberries and cedar throughout this. It’s medium-to full-bodied with a very compact palate of tannins that melt into the wine with freshness and brightness. Linear and deep. Drink in 2023 and onwards.

Mars 2021 (Millésime 2016)

Scented aromas of rose, cherry, strawberry and currant are the hallmarks of this elegant Barolo, which is grounded by underlying hints of tar and iron, while the lively structure shows fine integration. Long and resonant on the finish.

Juin 2019

Attractive red-cherry and spiced red-plum aromas, surrounded by nuances of tar and cedar. The palate has brisk acidity married with upright tannins, creating a juicy red-cherry surge through the finish. Good potential here.

Août 2023 (Millésime 2019)

Bricco Fiasco is a proprietary name for a vineyard in Castiglione Falletto with 85 year old vines. Luigi Scavino says, "These vines represent a unique heritage for our family." The 2019 Barolo Bricco Fiasco (with 5,800 bottles released) is a little shy initially, with heavier berry fruit aromas that eventually relax to show campfire ash, pencil shaving and pressed rose.

Antonio Galloni, Avril 2012 (Millésime 2001)

The 2001 Barolo Bricco Fiasco is one of the most impressive wines in this ten-year retrospective of the 2001 Baroli. The Bricco Fiasco remains vibrant, fresh and beautifully delineated from start to finish. Bright flowers, ripe red cherries, mint and iron flow onto the palate in this gorgeous, totally impeccable Barolo. The 2001 doesn't taste or feel that much different than it did as a young wine. There is plenty of energy and focus for the 2001 to make it to its 20th birthday. If opened today the wine needs at least a few hours of air for the tannins to soften.

Antonio Gallio, Avril 2012 (Millésime 2008)

The 2008 Barolo Bricco Fiasco is a big, serious wine endowed with layers of black fruit, iron, smoke, licorice and tar. Some of the brighter, higher-toned aromas that are often present in this vineyard are missing in 2008. Instead readers will find a big, full-bodied Barolo graced with exceptional overall balance and tons of energy. The energy and focus of the virile finish is something to behold. The Bricco Fiasco was aged in French oak barrels, 20% new.

Août 2022 (Millésime 2018)

The 2018 Barolo Bricco Fiasco reveals a dark and brooding character with dark fruit, iron ore, rusty earth, tar and licorice. It shows enormous precision and sharpness, especially in terms of the bouquet, with tight tannins and nice acidity.

Mars 2021 (Millésime 2017)

Located in Castiglione Falletto, Bricco Fiasco is a vineyard of old vines (85 years old) considered to be the historical selection of the estate. Fermented with indigenous yeasts for approximately 60 days with a submerged cap, it's then aged in large oak vessels for 24 months. Intense ruby in colour, it is restrained but full of layers, dominated by a bouquet of rose and violet, with fruit ranging between cranberry and dried cherry, followed by leather and earthy tones. Sucrose, fleshy and pure on the full-bodied palate, with velvety tannins and refreshing acidity. The floral character is intoxicating, while the extraction is so great on the mid-palate and chalky on the finish.

Wild notes of eucalyptus, tar, plum and cherry mark this solid red. Combines power and grace, with a lining of dusty tannins on the finish. Bright, lingering with earth and tobacco accents.

Février 2021

The 2017 Barolo Bricco Fiasco is bright and effusive from the very first taste. Crushed flowers, red berry fruit, orange peel, spice and mint all grace this nervy, mid-weight Barolo. Medium in body and translucent, the 2017 has quite a bit to offer. It is an especially savory, linear Barolo.

Août 2014 (Millésime 1999)

Tar, smoke, licorice, menthol and leather emerge from the 1999 Barolo Bricco Fiasco. Still fresh and vibrant, the 1999 has lost most of its baby fat and is at the early part of its drinking window. The wine turns darker with time in the glass, but never loses its mid-weight personality. This is an immensely appealing Barolo to drink now and over the next handful of years. The characteristic energy of Bricco Fiasco comes through nicely on the finish.

Novembre 2009 (Millésime 1999)

Pale garnet-brick colour. Alluringly fragrant aromas of dried roses and violets, moss, black truffles and cassia with a core of warm raspberry. Crisp acidity and a medium level of chewy tannins with plenty of mouthfilling berry and spice flavours on the palate. Long, layered finish.

Juin 2022 (Millésime 2018)

There’s a decent bead of red-berry fruit and some nut and citrus character. Medium-bodied palate with rather light tannin this year. It may expand with time.

Juillet 2022 (Millésime 2018)

Castiglione Falletto. Palish ruby. A little herbal and brooding and hinting at sweet red fruit. Elegant fruit palate with tangy, sappy acidity and fine chewy tannins. Still quite youthful and needs more time in the bottle.

Septembre 2014 (Millésime 2001)

Savoury and with the beginning of dried fruit and hints of camphor. Youthful sappy fruit and sweet ripe tannins on the finish. Lots of potential.

Février 2019

The 2015 Barolo Bricco Fiasco is another attractive, perfumed wine in this range. Iron, smoke, blood orange, kirsch and orange peel are all nicely delineated throughout. Deceptive in its mid-weight structure, the 2015 has enough drive, depth and sinewy tannin to support two decades of very fine drinking. Time in the glass allows the fruit to emerge, but the 2015 remains reticent and in need of time to be at its very best.
