Castello Di Verduno Description
Savor the excellence of Castello Di Verduno Barolo DOCG, an exceptional red wine crafted from hand-harvested Nebbiolo grapes in the prestigious Boscatto vineyard of Verduno commune. This wine showcases the rich heritage of Castello di Verduno, a historic property owning the finest crus in both Verduno and Barbaresco regions. Combining traditional winemaking techniques with sustainable organic practices, the talented winemaker Mario Andrion produces age-worthy masterpieces that captivate the senses.
Castello Di Verduno Barolo DOCG presents a clear garnet red hue and a warm, complex bouquet of herbs, blackberries, mint, sweet licorice, and ripe fruits. This full-bodied wine boasts a flavorsome palate, characterized by firm tannins and a long, satisfying finish. Aged for 32 months in large Slavonian oak casks and refined in steel tanks and bottles, this wine is the epitome of elegance and finesse.
The Castello Di Verduno Barolo is a versatile wine that pairs exquisitely with a variety of dishes. Its robust flavor profile complements hearty meat dishes, such as braised beef, osso buco, or lamb shanks. It also enhances the flavors of rich pasta dishes, like wild mushroom risotto or truffle-infused tagliatelle. For a more casual meal, enjoy it alongside a selection of aged cheeses and charcuterie.
Antonio Galloni: 91 Points
all from Boscato, in the town of Verduno. Sweet tobacco, earthiness, orange peel, cedar, dried flowers, licorice and herbs give the 2019 notable aromatic presense, while the fruit is pushed more into the background. There's more than enough complexity to ensure a decade of fine drinking, especially once the tannins soften a touch.
