The wine region of Colli Maceratesi
DOC of the Marches (1975) on the hills of Macerata down to the Adriatic, calcareous and clayey soils. Maceratino (Ribona) as the rare exclusive white — dry and delicate with citrus, yellow apple, white flowers, fennel and a saline mineral touch, fresh acidity, often skin-macerated as an "orange" wine for more structure. Sangiovese as the red, blended with Montepulciano, Cabernet and Merlot: ruby and fruity with cherry notes and a hint of herbs, rounded tannins.
The wine region of Marche
Italian star of Verdicchio: exceptional age-worthy whites, straight and mineral with signature notes of green almond, lemon, green apple, dry herbs and a slightly bitter finish. Two DOCGs: Castelli di Jesi (coastal, airy) and Matelica (inland, more concentrated). Mediterranean reds: fleshy Montepulciano in Rosso Conero near Ancona, supple Sangiovese. Also fresh Pecorino and Passerina.
The word of the wine: Presses
The juice that results from pressing the grapes after fermentation. At the end of the maceration, the vats are emptied, the first juice obtained is called the free-run wine and the marc remaining at the bottom of the vat is then pressed to give the press wine. We say more quickly "the presses". Their quality varies according to the vintage and the maceration. A too vigorous extraction releases the tannins of pips and the wine of press can then prove to be very astringent. Often the winemaker raises it separately, deciding later whether or not to incorporate it totally or partially into the grand vin.
