Description

2019 is the first vintage for the Mauro Veglio’s Commune di Serralunga. The wine was produced from rented vines that cover 4.5 hectares, but are shared with a friend of the estate. Fruit is sourced partially from the Manocino vineyard, located in a south-west-facing sector, which sits just below the winery of our friend Davide Rosso. It also comes from Lirano, which adjoins Manocino to the north. Both sites have the classic white Serralunga soils, and the resulting wine is zippy and fizzing with energy. Aged only in botte – albeit new ones – this has a lovely, bright and pure expression.

Critics reviews

Antonio Galloni 92/100
The 2019 Barolo del Comune di Serralunga d’Alba is laced with hints of tobacco, cedar, dried herbs, menthol, sage and mint, all of which infuse the 2019 with tons of character. The Serralunga is a gorgeous Barolo, a wine full of intrigue that will enjoy a fine evolution in bottle for at least a decade or so. It is a very good first effort. My impression is that this will only get better in future vintages. Vineyard sources are: Lirano and Manocino.Drink 2024-2034antonio_galloni, Vinous.com.com (November 2022)
