Descrizione

By the glass, the Campot Dolcetto d’Alba DOC from Castello di Verduno shows a lively ruby color and an immediate personality: aromas of fresh red fruits, cherry and small berries intertwine with light floral hints and a subtle almond note on the finish. The palate is lean and flowing, supported by a pleasant acidity that ensures freshness, while the tannins remain soft and well integrated, making it lively and straightforward on the palate without weighing it down.

An easy-drinking style, this Dolcetto is meant to accompany everyday meals: it pairs with cured meats and appetizers, savory tomato-based first courses, white meats and fresh or semi-aged cheeses. Best served slightly chilled, around 14–16 °C, to highlight its fruit and drinkability. A wine that emphasizes balance and the pleasure of the sip, perfect for informal moments but also for enhancing rustic traditional dishes.

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.
