2024 Castello di Verduno Basadone
VERY LIMITED - we received just 1/3 of our regular allocation.
100% Pelaverga from a producer considered the benchmark for this variety in Piedmont.
94 Points, Tip Top Tipple - Gary Walsh (The Wine Front) – “Poached strawberry, fresh raspberry, a dusting of white pepper and spice, light florals and almond meal. It’s light and crisp, spiced strawberry, fine dusty peppery tannin, cranberry freshness, with a finish of excellent length. This is peak Pelaverga, the clarity and lively feel of the wine is just so appealing.”
Cracked white pepper & graphite spice on the nose. Delicate red fruits of strawberry & a little raspberry punctuated by fine silky tannins. This is what Pelaverga is all about. It’s an all year round kind of red & super lunch wine with its light body. Pinot & Red Burgundy lovers should be all over this.
