Cantina Massara Verduno Pelaverga DOC, 2023

Cantina Massara Verduno Pelaverga DOC, 2023

Regular price $34.00

100% Pelaverga Piccolo. Highly aromatic and distinctively spicy. Notes of white pepper, wild strawberries, and rose petals leap from the glass. Subtle undertones of herbs, rhubarb, and a trace of clove add complexity. There's an earthy freshness reminiscent of a cool forest floor. Light-bodied yet remarkably flavorful, juicy red berries, especially cranberry and pomegranate, the bright acidity lends freshness, and soft, silky tannins provide gentle structure. The finish is elegant, clean, and slightly savory with a lingering spiced fruit note. Serve lightly chilled with mushroom risotto with fresh herbs or grilled swordfish and white beans.

Details

From our Importer: To fully appreciate the legacy of Cantina Massara, one must refer to the storied past of the Burlotto family in Verduno. Tucked in the northwestern corner of Barolo next to the Tanaro River, this village’s picturesque hilltops afford some of the most sweeping panoramas of the Langhe and beyond. Cantina Massara's origins can be traced to the 1850s, when Giovan Battista Burlotto began to make fine wine in Verduno. He was ultimately granted the distinguished title of Commendatore G.B. Burlotto, and by the time of his death in 1927, G.B. Burlotto was Verduno’s indisputable favorite son. The next several decades marked a period of expansion for the Burlotto family, especially in the year 1940 when the family fractured into three winemaking entities—the nascent Cantina Massara and Castello di Verduno in addition to the extant Comm. G.B. Burlotto. Now among today’s brightest stars of Verduno, Cantina Massara is helmed by fifth-generation Gian Carlo Burlotto along with his son Gianluca and his daughter Claudia. The historic estate’s three Baroli and a mesmerizing bottling of the rare Pelaverga Piccolo grape collectively embody the unique characteristics of Verduno-based wines that are remarkably perfumed and lifted while tempering power with tension.
