Structured, aromatic whites with firm acidity and an ample mouth, featuring aromas of citrus, yellow peach, aromatic herbs (sage, thyme), almond, white flowers and saline mineral notes. Fine length and ageing capacity. Star of Offida Pecorino DOCG in the Marche and Abruzzo Pecorino DOC, driving force behind the revival of great modern Adriatic whites. Native Italian grape rediscovered in the 1980s after near-disappearance.
Marche DOC in central-east around Jesi (Riserva DOCG since 2010), one of Italy's great whites. Signature native Verdicchio (min. 85%): dry structured whites with signature notes of bitter almond, citrus, green apple, fennel, white flowers and a saline mineral touch, taut palate and fine aging potential (10+ years). Style both fresh young and complex at maturity.
