Castello di Verduno
Pelaverga di Verduno is also called Pelaverga Piccolo and grows almost exclusively near the village of Verduno, according to legend brought here by a friar in the 17th century who picked a plant of it in the Saluzzo area. The name comes from the union of the words "pela" and "verga," and is thought to refer to an ancient vine training technique. Pelaverga di Verduno is a nationally known vine and is unrelated to Pelaverga Grosso, which is purely used for the production of locally important wines and is characterized by a larger cluster and berries.Read moreSold out
