Mauro Veglio

Mauro Veglio is a 30-acre estate in La Morra, in Langhe, in the Piedmont region. It is owned and operated by Mauro and Daniela Veglio, who both grew up in grape-growing families who sold their grapes to co-ops and negociants. But in 1992 the couple decided to produce their own wine. They significantly reduced the number of vines per acre and started making small quantities of Barolo. Today the estate produces about 60,000 bottles annually. It makes Barbera, Dolcetto and Nebbiolo but is most noted for its various Barolos. Gambero Rosso, Italy’s leading wine journal, has frequently given Veglio’s wines its highest rating of 3 glasses. Gambero Rosso wrote in 2010 that “nearly all (the estate’s) wines have achieved an unprecedented degree of balance and perfection.” Mauro Veglio is near the legendary estate of Elio Altare.
