Territory and wine style

This wine originates from the area of Castelli di Jesi, in the heart of the Marche, a region historically suited to Verdicchio and particularly suitable for the production of elegant and long-lived whites. The vineyard is located near Cupramontana, at a higher altitude compared to the early vintages of the project, on deep clay-loam soils. Manual harvesting and cellar work aim to preserve aromatic integrity, balance, and expressive precision. The winemaking involves a portion in steel and a portion in 50 hl oak barrels, with aging on the lees and subsequent resting in the bottle, for a harmonious and refined profile.

Tasting notes

In the glass, it presents an intense straw yellow, enhanced by golden reflections. On the nose, it offers fresh and penetrating aromas, with hints of ripe fruit, honey, bitter almond, and aromatic herbs, accompanied by a slight balsamic nuance and the typical anise note of the grape variety. The sip is rich and velvety, yet always supported by a beautiful freshness and pronounced salinity. The balance between softness and gustatory tension makes the wine broad, elegant, and persistent, with a finish that recalls apple, plum, and almond.
