Scarpa Verduno Pelaverga 2025

Scarpa Verduno Pelaverga 2025 is a vibrant and characterful red from one of Piedmont’s most distinctive native grapes, Pelaverga Piccolo di Verduno. Light on its feet but full of personality, it offers a uniquely aromatic style that sets it apart from the region’s more structured classics. With roots in the historic Verduno area, this wine reflects both local tradition and Scarpa’s careful approach to expressive, terroir-driven winemaking.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, it typically shows a bright, translucent ruby hue that hints at its graceful, lighter-bodied style. The nose is often marked by fragrant red berries, floral tones, and the grape’s signature spicy, peppery edge, making it immediately engaging and highly aromatic. On the palate, expect fresh red fruit, lively acidity, and a delicate but persistent savory-spicy finish. Its charm lies in balance rather than weight, with enough structure to remain interesting while staying wonderfully easy to drink. Pelaverga is usually enjoyed young for its freshness and fragrance, though it can develop a little more complexity over the short to medium term.

Production
This wine comes from Piemonte, where Verduno is known as one of the historic homes of Pelaverga Piccolo di Verduno. The style is typically shaped by carefully selected grapes and gentle vinification designed to preserve the variety’s aromatic precision, freshness, and fine texture. Scarpa’s focus on quality and clarity helps highlight the grape’s natural spice and elegant fruit expression.

Food & Serving
Scarpa Verduno Pelaverga is a versatile food wine, especially good with charcuterie, roasted poultry, pork, mushroom dishes, and mild, flavorful cheeses.
