Mauro Veglio shares a courtyard and a lot of wine-making techniques with his good friend Elio Altare. STEPHEN TANZER

Mauro Veglio is one of the rising stars of La Morra and having learned his trade in part from the great Elio Altare he is fast maturing into one of the top sources from the sub-zone. His wines are modern in character yet the wood never over powers what are both fragrant and structured wines. We have been lucky to have been able to source a small amount of this superb 2001 which comes from a vineyard in Monforte d'Alba. We recommend this highly to you!

Good full red. Highly complex nose combines dark raspberry, roasted herbs, olive, menthol and underbrush. Sweet and silky in the mouth, with dark fruit flavors. Quite suave and pinot-like in texture. The granular, dusty tannins arrive earlier than those of the Gattera. But this is longer and younger.
The '99 version of this bottling was muscular in a Serralunga way, but this and the '00 are altogether more graceful. STEPHEN TANZER
