2021 Barolo, Castelletto, Mauro Veglio, Piedmont, Italy

Description

Veglio was the first to label Castelletto with the MGA designation in 1996, later joined by esteemed producers such as Burlotto. This wine hails from Monforte’s unusually limestone-rich soils, offering classic, expansive power, black cherry, and moody undertones, balanced by fresh structural poise and energetic tannins. It is an elegant and harmonious expression of Monforte d’Alba.

Critics reviews

Kerin O'Keefe 96/100
Aromas recalling ripe forest berry, eucalyptus and dark culinary spice mingle with a whiff of botanical herb on the fantastic 2021 Castelletto from Mauro Veglio. Elegantly structured and linear, the palate has nervous tension that underscores red cherry, cranberry, licorice and ground clove. Taut, refined tannins provide support. Still youthfully austere, give it time to fully unwind and develop.
Drink 2031 - 2041

Antonio Galloni 95/100
The 2021 Barolo Castelletto is one of the most potent of these wines. It exudes tons of textural depth and overall intensity. Dark cherry, red plum, blood orange, spice and rose petal saturate the palate. All the 2021 needs is a bit of time to shed some of its baby fat. Today the aromatics are especially alluring. Brisk acids and beams of supporting tannin round out a super-classic expression of Monforte's Castelletto district.
Drink 2027 - 2038
