Marchetti Verdicchio dei Castelli di Jesi Classico 2020

Winemaker Maurizio Marchetti is the great-great grandson of an Italian spice trader who whose many passions included wine and Chinese silks. Five generations later, he’s now a master vintner like his father, the man who helped establish the Marche region’s prestigious Conero DOC.

 

Grape: Verdicchio

 

Taste: This low yielding Verdicchio is a hallmark of the varietal, with refreshing citrus fruits, playful acidity, and complex minerality. Made only with juice from a gentle half-press, it is precise and lovely, well-deserving of the storied Marchetti name.
