100% Verdicchio – pure essence in the glass. This 2020 version was aged on the lees for 20 months and disgorged with no dosage added. Pale straw-yellow in color but incredibly luminous, its aroma is a textbook example of Verdicchio: varietal notes take center stage over the lees, with hints of fennel, citron peel, ginger, camphor, and a subtle touch of brioche adding complexity.
On the palate, it’s simply irresistible – clear and expressive in flavor. The second fermentation adds volume and depth without compromising the purity, delivering the honesty of a great still white. The carbon dioxide forms a creamy mousse, and the persistence is remarkable, led by notes of unripe pineapple, ginger, and camphor. Drink it whenever you like, with whatever – and whomever – you please.
Excellent as an aperitif, ideal throughout the meal, and truly shines alongside vegetarian cuisine.
