Osteria Veglio, in the heart of Piedmont

This is a kind of place where great food and serious wine come together without any fuss. Cases spent an afternoon here over a classic Fassona battuta al coltello with Parmigiano Reggiano, paired — somewhat unexpectedly — with Gaja Barbaresco Alteni di Brassica Sauvignon 2022. A combination that worked rather brilliantly. The service is warm and welcoming, and the wine list makes it kind of difficult to leave
