    1977 Barolo – Pasquale Veglio, Cascina Bruni (Piedmont)

    The 1977 vintage in Piedmont produced classically styled Barolos, favouring structure and steady evolution rather than overt power. This bottling from Pasquale Veglio’s Cascina Bruni reflects a traditional approach to Nebbiolo, crafted in an era when extended ageing in large oak casks and patient bottle maturation defined the character of the region’s wines.

    Tasting Notes:
    Now showing a mature brick-garnet hue with amber highlights at the rim, the nose is gently evolved and expressive. Aromas of dried cherry, rose petal and redcurrant are layered with notes of leather, tobacco leaf and forest floor. With time in the glass, subtle hints of truffle, cedarwood and warm spice emerge. On the palate it is medium-bodied and harmonious, with softened tannins and a fine thread of acidity that preserves balance. Flavours of dried red fruits, savoury earth and delicate balsamic tones unfold gradually, leading to a smooth, elegant and contemplative finish.

    Serving & Food Pairing:
    Decant carefully to remove sediment and allow the wine to open slowly before serving. Best enjoyed at cellar temperature. A natural partner to braised meats, truffle dishes, game or mature hard cheeses.

    Summary:
    A mature and characterful Barolo from a traditional Piedmont estate, the 1977 Pasquale Veglio Cascina Bruni offers classical Nebbiolo perfume and savoury complexity developed through decades of bottle ageing.
