The Scala family is one of Calabria’s finest estates. The domaine has been in the Scala family since 1949. Today it is run by Luigi and Francesco Scala who focus entirely on organically grown, indigenous varieties. They have 18 hectares in the Cirò DOC dedicated to Gaglioppo, Greco and Magliocco.

Reverdito Barolo Ascheri 2016
Vineyard: La Morra
Production: 4,000 bottles
Soil: Marl
Barolo produced here is best described as “warm-hearted”. Michele’s Barolo Ascheri comes from the classic chalky soils of La Morra about 250 meters up the steep hillside, inter-planted with several types of grasses and beans to aid biodiversity and soil structure. The resulting wine has an enticing nose of flowers, ripe strawberries and dark cherries, and a good mouthful of plummy ripe elegant fruit. This deceptively mid-weight Barolo has a ton to offer.
Domaine Pellé Morogues Menetou-Salon 2018
100% Pinot Noir grown on Kimmeridgian marl and limestone. Aged in a combo of 70% wood *Foudres and used 400L barrels) and 30% tank for 12 months.
The terroir of the village of Morogues combined with strict vineyard practices results in a beautiful Pinot that would not be out of place in a tasting of Volnays.
