Castello di Verduno, Nebbiolo, Langhe, Piedmont, Italy 2022
100% Nebbiolo. Delicate floral notes accompany the wine's classic crunchy red fruit profile. Approachable and ready to drink.
Practicing organic. Sourced from estate vineyards in the commune of Barbaresco. The soil is limestone and clay. The grapes are hand-harvested from vines planted in 1978.
Fermentation is in stainless steel for about 12 days with periodic punching down. The wine is aged for six months in Slavonian botti grandi followed by three months in steel and then three months in the bottle.
Castello di Verduno is a historic Piemontese estate that makes classic Barolo and Barbaresco from prime vineyard sites in both appellations. The winery is located in Verduno, the northernmost commune of Barolo. This township has flown under the radar for many years but recently has been gaining more and more attention.
The winery’s philosophy is to produce wines that speak of place in a classic way and are also sustainable and protect the land. As such, they practice organic farming and are meticulous both in the vineyard and in the cellar. Mario uses minimal SO2 and also vinifies with indigenous yeast. Their wines are firmly traditional in style though never rustic; in fact just the opposite, they retain a rare elegance and purity.
