Description
Belisario Verdicchio di Matelica Cambrugiano Riserva has been produced in the Marche region since 1988 and is made entirely from Verdicchio grapes. Once harvested, the grapes undergo a cryomaceration process, which intensifies the aromas and structure. After cryomaceration, the wine is placed first in steel barrels and then in toasted oak barrels. It is then bottled for a year, after which it is ready for release. This complex production process ensures the wine retains all the organoleptic qualities that have made it famous and appreciated by an ever-growing number of consumers. In 2020, it was ranked among the top ten best Italian white wines, and was even considered one of the finest expressions of this variety. This prestigious recognition was awarded by Gambero Rosso, the Slow Wine association, and the Fondazione Italiana Sommelier Bibenda. This is a still white wine with DOCG classification and its production began in 1971, which corresponds to the founding date of the Cantine Belisario winery. Thanks to its cellar with a capacity of over 30,000 hectoliters and a plot of land extending over 300 hectares, the winery is one of the largest producers of Verdicchio di Matelica DOC. To create the finest products for the market, it relies on the collaboration and professionalism of four master cellarmen, four viticultural technicians, and an oenologist, who scrupulously monitor all the various production phases.
