This is really delicious now with strawberry, chocolate, hazelnut and walnut undertones. Some floral notes, too. Medium to full body with round tannins and a delicious finish. Drinkable now, but another year or two in bottle will make it even better. And it can age. Try from 2023.

This wine represents a blend of fruit from Arborina and Gattera in La Morra and Castelletto in Monforte d'Alba. The Mauro Veglio 2017 Barolo opens to a light garnet-ruby color with a glossy shine and a classic aromatic profile of wild berry, tar, licorice and crushed blue flowers. The 2017 vintage is a bit thinner in the mid-palate, but this expression demonstrates good tannic management. Production stands at 25,000 bottles.
