  • Antonio Galloni, November 2016, Score: 95

    The 2013 Barolo Margheria shows its typically high-toned, aromatic profile. Scents of lavender, sage, mint, leather and earthiness meld into a core of dark stone fruits. Veins of bright acidity and salinity give the flavors an extra kick of brightness on the finish. The relatively high-altitude of this site and the limestone-rich soils yield a brilliant, salivating Barolo. The Margheria was aged in cask. Drink 2020-2033.

  • ML, August 2017, Score: 94

    This vineyard is located in Serralunga d'Alba, where the soils are rich with clay and limestone. Vines are 50 years old, on average. The 2013 Barolo Margheria is a terrific wine with broad shoulders and a fully loaded, exuberant personality. The bouquet is dark and gristly in places with aromas of dark cherry followed by smoked bacon fat and cured tobacco. These are classic characteristics of this vineyard site, and they come through with absolute clarity in this classic vintage. There is a pronounced mineral note of campfire ash and pencil shaving as well. Drink 2018-2030.

Azelia is a true Barolo lover’s secret. Not only are the wines exquisite, but the family are hugely passionate. We have been lucky enough to visit this estate for a number of years, and never leave without a big smile on our faces! Now in the hands of the fourth and fifth generation of the Scavino family, Luigi and his son Lorenzo manage the 16-hectare estate and craft excellent single vineyard Barolos in the villages of Castiglione Falletto and Serralunga d’Alba. As they say, “only the expert eye and the skilled hand achieve the highest quality of grapes.” Their talents have not gone unnoticed by the critics either. Antonio Galloni writes, “Azelia remains one of the under-the-radar jewels of Piemonte. The wines have been terrific for some time, and prices are exceedingly fair considering the quality of what goes into the bottle”. For Barolo lovers, or those new to the region, Azelia offers a source of sensibly priced, site-specific Barolos. The wines offer beguiling fruit, a distinct richness and structure and unparalleled textural complexity. Single vineyard ‘cru’ sites are developing an ever-greater prominence in Barolo and Azelia own some of the best. They produce a village Barolo and four crus (Bricco Fiasco, Margheria, San Rocco and Cerretta) as well as the Bricco Voghera Riserva. They also make a delicious Langhe Nebbiolo and a rather serious single vineyard Dolcetto d’Alba Bricco Oriolo. We are utterly convinced by the sensibly priced, site-specific wines that they craft from the region's most enviable vineyards.Read less

Region

Barolo

With Brunello in Tuscany, Barolo is undoubtedly Italy's finest wine producing region. Located in Piedmont in the north west of Iataly Barolo is comprised of 5 major communes - Barolo, Monteforte d'Alba, La Morra, Castiglione Falletto and Serralunga d'Alba - though the latter three tend to represent the main styles of the region. The wines are compelling and polished - an exemplary expression of the Nebbiolo grape. DOCG law requires a minimum ageing of 2 years in cask or barrel yet can be longer depending on the producer. Barolos are generally released four or more years after the vintage.
