This great Barolo Monvigliero from top winery Paolo Scavino comes from the Monvigliero vineyard of the same name, which can really be considered the "grand cru" of the village of Verduno. The Monvigliero vineyard is therefore the most important vineyard of the northern Italian municipality of Verduno. This cru was first vinified in the 2000 vintage and blended to the Barolo until the 2007 vintage after which this vineyard was bought by the Scavino family and made as a single cru. The vineyard has a soil of predominantly limestone, light colored and mixed with calcareous veins, which is very characteristic of the municipality of Verduno.
