Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Exotic and brawny, with an alluring nose of tar and licorice interlaced with violets and roses. Muscular tannins frame streamlined cherry fruit and earth tones in the mouth. Nicely persistent. Although not the most sophisticated of Barolos, Veglio offers solid value in the category. Best after 2013.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
This is a powerful bully of a wine but a good value in the pricey Barolo category. Sweaty, masculine aromas lead to a concentrated palate framed by strapping tannins and flavors of black earth and violets. Medium finish. Give it a few years to grow up.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Impressive for its alluring nose with multiple layers of Indian spice, cherry fruit and leather. Ripe fruit is intense and focused on the palate while the long finish exhibits some slightly rustic character. Give the burly tannins four or five years to integrate fully.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Confected but charming nonetheless, with pure aromas of honey and roasted pineapple bolstered by light minerality. Peach and fresh ginger come through on the slightly watery finish. Drink now.

Veglio Moscato - 2008

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Light-bodied and lacking in tannin, this is a more traditional Barbera, with attractive mixed berry fruit on the nose, followed by forest floor and graham cracker flavors in the mouth. Drink now.

Veglio Barbera - 2007

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Really charming, with a nose of green plums, red berries and earth that jumps out of the glass and curls up in your lap. The palate is lacking a bit in intensity but makes up for it with iresistable cassis flavor followed by fresh-roasted coffee. The bracing acidity would be well matched by a cheese-laden dish such as lasagna. Drink now to one year.

Veglio Dolcetto - 2007

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
The nose is complex, showing smoky dark cherry fruit, roses and cinammon. A pleasant wine on the palate, it shows the same complexity, but lacks concentration. A medium finish. A good wine that will work well with food, but it needs a little extra on the palate to make it special.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
A pleasant wine showing some jammy fruit, with interesting nuances of burnt sugar. Already at its apogee, and probably should be drunk quickly.

Veglio Red Blend - NV

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
From the small hilltop town of Diano d'Aba, the wine has two very distinct personalities; the nose is fully mature with beautiful deep blackberry aromas mingled with smoke and violets, but the palate, which had little fruit, was soft and lacked definition, not to mention much finish.

Veglio Dolcetto - 2004

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Shows very ripe, roasted fruit and brown sugar. It verges on overripeness, but has the acidity to keep it in balance. For a Barolo from a top vintage, it lacks complexity, but it is an easy-drinking wine.
