Mauro Veglio – Barolo Paiagallo – 2017

Paiagallo is one of the most historic vineyards in the commune of Barolo; located in the southeast, the winery owns less than half a hectare and only since 2016 has it been vinified as a single vineyard. Thanks to the soils rich in sandy marl and 40-year-old vines, here we will find a Barolo with great energy and structure, but enveloped in a pleasant, delicate feel, with heady aromas and sweet tannins.

Description

The origins of Mauro Veglio winery date back to the first years of 1900, thanks to the dream of Angelo, Mauro’s father, to bring up the name “nebbiolo da Barolo” in the world. As a humble farmer from La Morra, in the 60’s he finally managed to invest and buy the first vineyards such as Gattera, Arborina and Rocche dell’Annunziata, among the best ones for position and exposure. The radical change in the winery took place with Mauro’s arrival at the end of the 1980’s, where they aimed at producing wines with new techniques, trying to extract more color and tannins and introducing the use of small casks in order to produce wines more ready to drink and less dark and rustic. The first real vintage under Mauro Veglio’s name was in 1992. With the entrance of his nephew Alessandro, the winery has a continuity of family management while aiming more and more to make niche and quality wines. Today the winery manages 19 hectares (19 acres), while paying attention to the work in the vineyard and completely eliminating pesticides and chemical products. Wines with character, with great technique, but most of all to be kept in the cellar in order to fully enjoy the characteristics of every single parcel.
