Varietal

Nebbiolo

The Nebbiolo grape varietal is widely understood to be the fruit responsible for Italy's finest aged wines. However, its popularity and reliability as a grape which gives out outstanding flavors and aromas has led it to be planted in many countries around the world, with much success. These purple grapes are distinguishable by the fact that they take on a milky dust as they begin to reach maturity, leading many to claim that this is the reason for their unusual name, which means 'fog' in Italian. Nebbiolo grapes produce wines which have a wide range of beautiful and fascinating flavors, the most common of which are rich, dark and complex, such as violet, truffle, tobacco and prunes. They are generally aged for many years to balance out their characteristics, as their natural tannin levels tend to be very high.

Country

Italy

There are few countries in the world with a viticultural history as long or as illustrious as that claimed by Italy. Grapes were first being grown and cultivated on Italian soil several thousand years ago by the Greeks and the Pheonicians, who named Italy 'Oenotria' – the land of wines – so impressed were they with the climate and the suitability of the soil for wine production. Of course, it was the rise of the Roman Empire which had the most lasting influence on wine production in Italy, and their influence can still be felt today, as much of the riches of the empire came about through their enthusiasm for producing wines and exporting it to neighbouring countries. Since those times, a vast amount of Italian land has remained primarily for vine cultivation, and thousands of wineries can be found throughout the entire length and breadth of this beautiful country, drenched in Mediterranean sunshine and benefiting from the excellent fertile soils found there. Italy remains very much a 'land of wines', and one could not imagine this country, its landscape and culture, without it.

Region

Piedmont

Situated in the north-western part of Italy, the region of Piedmont is known worldwide and is highly respected for the quality of the wines produced there. Many of the most successful sub-regions in Piedmont produce many of the world's finest red wines, such as those made from the excellent Nebbiolo grape varietal in areas such as Barolo and Barbaresco. However, the historic wineries which typify this region use a relatively wide variety of grapes, including Dolcetto and Barbera for their red wines, which are typically aged and have a delightful velvety character. Piedmont isn't all about beautifully complex red wines, though, as it is also famed for high quality, elegant sparkling wines, notably the Asti wines made with the white Moscato grape. The region benefits from a range of terroirs which are often well expressed in the sparkling wines, and a wonderfully consistent climate ideal for vineyard cultivation.

Appellation

Barolo

Barolo’s star grape is Nebbiolo, a finicky yet expressive variety that reaches its zenith this unique terroir. The region’s distinct microclimates and soils contribute to Nebbiolo’s complexity, resulting in wines with robust tannins, high acidity, and exceptional aging potential. Barolo wines, often referred to as “the king of wines,” are characterized by their deep garnet hue and complex bouquet, offering aromas of roses, tar, truffles, and red fruit. The aging process is significant, requiring at least 38 months, with a minimum of 18 months spent in wooden casks. This meticulous craftsmanship results in wines that evolve beautifully over time, displaying a harmonious balance of power and finesse. For wine enthusiasts, exploring Barolo provides a captivating journey into the rich tapestry of Italian winemaking, showcasing the profound marriage of tradition, terroir, and Nebbiolo’s distinctive expression.

James Suckling

Really fascinating aromas of ripe fruit with black-truffle, ink and ripe-berry character. Full-bodied with beautifully ripened fruit and a soft, round tannin structure. It’s juicy and fruity at the end. Give this time to come together and soften. Better after 2024.

Wine Enthusiast

Iris, violet and espresso aromas mingle in the glass along with woodland berry. Elegantly structured and linear, the full-bodied palate features ripe Marasca cherry, dried botanical herb, molten chocolate and licorice notes alongside enveloping, fine-grained tannins. Drink 2024–2029.

Wine Advocate

From one of the most recognized growing sites in La Morra with 36-year-old vines, the Mauro Veglio 2017 Barolo Arborina opens to a lean appearance with ruby and garnet highlights. Despite the wine's rather timid and subdued first approach, the bouquet is actually quite articulate and expressive, with a fun assembly of cassis, wild cherry and dark plum aromas. The finish is a little thin and dry, owning those shortcomings to the hot and dry vintage, but the wine does fill out nicely over the palate nonetheless. This was a release of 6,500 bottles.

WS 91pts

Wine Spectator

Licorice and cherry mingle in this slightly chewy red, framed by tar, iron and grassy notes. Tightly wound and long, with fine equilibrium overall. Best from 2024 through 2038. 540 cases made, 180 cases imported.

VM 91pts

Vinous Media

The 2017 Barolo Arborina is pretty, but also quite delicate and ethereal. Crushed flowers, spice, mint, tobacco and orange peel are nicely lifted throughout. This is an especially light, aromatic style, and while Barolo can be deceptive, my preference would be to drink this on the early side.

Winery Notes

Color: Intense ruby red with garnet hues. Aroma: fruity with excellent intensity and overall delicate harmony. Notes of small red fruits and black and red current. Delicately spicy finish. Flavor: Delicate, soft, with excellent balance of alcohol and tannins. Good persistence and minerality with an elegant finish. Complex, yet extremely delicate, this wine displays its La Morra origins in its freshness and elegance.
