Descrizione

Barolo 2021 from Castello di Verduno expresses with finesse the classic character of Nebbiolo: a bright garnet robe and an immediately enveloping but never intrusive bouquet, where wild strawberry and spirit-soaked cherry, rose petal and subtle earthy notes alternate. The whole is driven by a crisp, incisive freshness and a sapidity that lifts the sip; spicy nuances appear discreetly, adding depth without weighing it down. The overall impression is of grace and concentration together, inviting and measured.

On the palate it reveals structure and elegance in balance: the tannins are well present but polished, acidity keeps the wine slender and the persistence invites a second taste. It’s a Barolo meant to accompany dishes with character — braised meats, roasts, mushroom risottos and aged cheeses — but that also gives full pleasure on its own, at leisure. It is enjoyable now but can evolve in the cellar for several years; serve in a large glass to capture its full aromatic spectrum. Ideal serving temperature around 16–18 °C.

Winery history

The building has Renaissance origins and a long local history; it was rebuilt in later periods, and in 1838 it was acquired by Carlo Alberto di Savoia, who entrusted management of the estate to a winemaker. In the 20th century the property passed into the hands of local families, who developed wine tourism by transforming the castle into a facility with an on-site cellar, restaurant and hotel, while continuing the area's historic wine production.

Production philosophy

The estate states it focuses on wines that clearly express the Langhe, favoring low-intervention practices and traditional vinification for the major appellations, with attention to vine care in the vineyard.

Terroir and vineyards

Vineyards located between the municipality of Verduno and the Barbaresco area, in the heart of the Langhe. The producer is committed to the local appellations and to promoting native grape varieties such as Pelaverga piccolo, as well as Nebbiolo for Barolo and Barbaresco.
