I Brè – Verduno Pelaverga DOC
Verduno Pelaverga comes from grapes grown in the Verduno area, an area characterized by Tortorian soil, which has a perfect combination of limestone elements and bluish yellow marls. For this reason, wines produced with grapes grown on these soils tend to be particularly fruity, with medium tannins and ready to be enjoyed while still young: this is the hallmark of the rare and prized Verduno Pelaverga.
