Italian term (old) for a wine with a certain storage time (barrel and bottle); there is also "Stravecchio" (very old). Vecchio is the precursor to Riserva; see there.

Serious sources on the internet are rare - and Wine lexicon from wein.plus is one such source. When researching for my articles, I regularly consult the wein.plus encyclopaedia. There I get reliable and detailed information.
