Luigi and his son, Lorenzo, are obsessive about obtaining ripe bunches that are as perfect as possible - this is the foundation of their impressive and honest wine making. They only accept grapes from vines over 35yo for Azelia Barolo  This admirable insistence is married perfectly with their sympathetic vinification (including a non-reliance on new\/small-format oak) and their excellently sited holdings in the great crus. These are all reasons for greatness generally, but the Scavino family bring an 'X-factor' that makes their Azelia wines greater than the sum of their parts. \u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"line-height: 120%;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Raleway, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-size: 12px;\"\u003e'One of the major goals of the modern school of Barolo was to make wines that were approachable young, but that could also age.
