Descrizione

The Basadone Pelaverga Verduno DOC from Castello di Verduno presents a slim, intriguing profile built on freshness and lightness. On the nose it shows small red fruits and floral notes, with a spicy accent recalling white pepper and a subtle herbaceous touch. The color is pale but lively, and the wine’s structure favors drinkability over power: it has bright acidity and soft tannins that make it easy to drink and immediate without being banal.

The sip is brisk and savory, with fruity echoes that invite a second glass; the finish is moderate and leaves a pleasant spicy note that defines the style. It pairs well with local dishes, lightly aged cured meats, white meats and simple first courses, but also holds up to more delicate pairings like mushrooms or soft cheeses. Serve cool, in not-too-large glasses, to appreciate its interplay of freshness and lightness.

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.
