| Over het wijnhuis | Cascina Schiavenza maakt maar liefst 5 verschillende, unieke Barolo’s. De wijnen krijgen hun rijping op grote Slavonische vaten, en in tegenstelling tot wat de moderne etiketten doen vermoeden, hanteert Schiavenza een traditionele stijl van wijn maken. |
| Wijngaard en regio | De druiven komen uit wijngaarden in verschillende cru's (Bricco Voghera, Cerrati en Meriame) in de comune (gemeente) Serralunga d’Alba in Barolo. De wijngaarden liggen op 300-400 meter boven zeeniveau en liggen op het zuidoosten en westen. De bodems bestaan uit kalksteen en tufsteen. |
| Vinificatie | De druiven vergisten voor 15-20 dagen op een temperatuur van 25-30 graden, waarbij de wijn regelmatig wordt overgepompt van het ene naar het andere vat. De wijn rijpt vervolgens 30 maanden in grote vaten (20-40 hl) van Slavonisch eiken. |

| Awards | "Aromas of roses, violets, blue fruit and some earthy tile notes. The palate is medium- to full-bodied with refined tannins and a very warm, cozy, enveloping core of pretty fruit that’s persistent. Best ever from here. A joy to taste now, but better in a couple of years." - James Suckling "Cask sample. Pale ruby. Cherry and raspberry fruit with a dusting of liquorice. Attractive, gravelly tannins underneath fragrant red fruit. Simply delicious. (WS)" - Jancis Robinson "There’s a menthol cast to the cherry and raspberry fruit in this red, all backed by a line of stiff, compact tannins. Nonetheless, the finish on this is extremely long, with the fruit and savory essence persisting alongside a mineral hint. Best from 2029 through 2046." - Wine Spectator "The 2018 Barolo del Comune di Serralunga d'Alba is an accessible and open-knit expression that builds in intensity as the wine spends additional time in the glass. Dark fruit and plum transition to potting soil and iris root. The wine shows structure and strength, but its power is well managed throughout." - 92 punten, Robert Parker's Wine Advocate over de 2018-vintage "The 2018 Barolo del Comune di Serralunga d'Alba is a very pretty, aromatic mid-weight wine that offers good depth for the year and fine balance to match. Macerated cherry, spice, rose petal and anise lead into the nuanced, perfumed finish. This is a gorgeous Serralunga Barolo that will drink well with minimal cellaring." - 90 punten, Vinous over de 2018-vintage "This wine is like a flavorbomb exploding on your palate. Cola and dark spices mingle with intense, jam-packed fruit that's been dialed up to eleven. Lush and round, it's got tannins that are as well-behaved as an honor roll student. This wine is a total powerhouse that's sure to impress. Drink Now - 2035" - 93 punten, Wine Enthusiast over de 2020-vintage |
