Sourced from three vineyards: Rabaja, Rabaja-bas and Faset.
Castello di Verduno is a historic Piemontese estate that makes classic Barolo and Barbaresco from prime vineyard sites in both appellations. The winery is located in Verduno, the northernmost commune of Barolo.
The winery’s philosophy is to produce wines that speak of place in a classic way and are also sustainable and protect the land. As such, they practice organic farming and are meticulous both in the vineyard and in the cellar. Winemaker Mario Andrion uses minimal SO2 and also vinifies with indigenous yeast. The wines are firmly traditional in style though never rustic; in fact just the opposite, they retain a rare elegance and purity.
This Barbaresco is fermented in stainless steel for about twenty days with periodic punching down of the cap. It is then aged for 18 months in Slavonian botti grandi followed by three months in stainless steel and then 14 months in the bottle before release.
