Verdicchio di Matelica<\/h1>\n

DENOMINAZIONE DI ORIGINE CONTROLLATA – 2025<\/h3>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_separator css_animation=”none” type=”small” position=”left” width_in_percentages=”yes” color=”#000000″ width=”30″][vc_column_text css=””]The 2025 version of Collestefano Verdicchio di Matelica expresses the character of the Collestefano terroir in a vegetal and above all citrus-driven style, recalling the personality of the most energetic vintages, such as the legendary and unforgettable 2013 and 2006.
\nLight straw yellow and full of brightness, as always. The aromas are very refined and will unfold over time, revealing notes of lemon peel, anise flowers and cardamom over a background of golden apple.
\nThe palate is light yet full of energy, with the dynamism and drinkability of the estate\u2019s finest vintages.
\nThe finish is fresh, pleasantly tangy and very long, alternating notes of lemon peel, peach and cardamom.
\nIf the 2024 version recalled the great Gr\u00fcner Veltliner wines of the Wachau, here we are in Germany, with its exceptional Rieslings.
\nWith bottle aging it will develop mineral notes of hydrocarbons (petrol), candied lemon and, after many years, chestnut honey, without ever losing the famous dynamism that has made it the cult wine of the entire denomination.
\nOutstanding with seafood cuisine and spectacular with raw dishes.
\nA wine that will need a few years to reach its peak, likely not before 2030, and that will probably express its best character at least until 2035\u20132040.<\/p>\n
