Appellation
Castelli di Jesi Verdicchio Riserva DOCG Classico - Organic
Grape variety
100% Verdicchio
Vinification and aging
Aged in wood: 15 - 24 months and then bottle (minimum 1 year). Like a red, this is a wine that matures in Slavonian oak barrels for about two years, to which is added at least an additional year in the bottle. This quite unusual maturation is possible thanks to the complexity of the grapes, which come from vineyards at least 40 to 50 years old, with deep roots that go in search of nourishment in the noblest and most "virgin" part of the subsoil.
Soil
Clayey - Limestone
Wine and food pairing
Due to its great structure, it is a wine that accompanies seafood, fish and roasted white meat cuisine. Its complexity makes it capable of following a red wine in the tasting chronology, for example, to return to a white wine to accompany cheeses, after accompanying the main meat dish with an important red wine.
Tasting Notes
Bucci's Verdicchio Riserva is a very special wine. Repeatedly recognized in Italy as "best white wine of the year" by some of the most authoritative wine guides, it is a white that is similar in its characteristics to a red wine.
Serving temperature
10-12°C
