Label / history

Novantesimo 2011 marks the ninetieth anniversary of the Paolo Scavino family winery, founded in 1921. For the first time since 1964, Enrico Scavino revived the bottle and label used by his grandfather Lorenzo and his father Paolo. The release honours their dedication to the vineyards and their conviction in the quality and character of the Langa hills, values continued by Enrico and his daughters Enrica and Elisa.
