Verdicchio dei Castelli di Jesi Classico Superiore 2024

Description

Still white wine from the heart of the Marche region, 13% ABV, 100% Verdicchio. Produced by Andrea Felici in Apiro. 0.75 L bottle, 2024 vintage. A wine that embodies the essence of Verdicchio, with its characteristic freshness and minerality. Since 1978, the Andrea Felici winery has passionately cultivated the vineyards between Apiro and Cupramontana, in the heart of the Verdicchio region. A few days on the skins, it ages on the lees in stainless steel tanks for three months, and then spends another two months in bottle before being released. A distinctive aroma profile draws on fruity notes of medlar, plum, and fresh almond, along with artemisia flowers and leaves, wild fennel, and gusts of iodine. Greenish highlights against a pale golden background. On the palate, it expresses youthful vigor, dictated by exuberant freshness and a decisive savory punch. A long finish rich in consistent varietal notes.

Between Apiro and Cupramontana, right at the heart of the lands of Verdicchio, we have been devoting our utmost care to our vines for generations. We strive to make true wines, telling the story of our wonderful land and, to some extent, of us personally, of our passion, and of our determination, by which we have made so many sacrifices and a few privations to go on and always try to get the best from our ten hectares of vineyards. We have made it, at last, or so it seems. Critics praise us and our products are included in the wine-list of several important restaurants.

But there is still a long way to go, as we know. This is why we make one small step ahead every year, as Verdicchio, the world’s greatest white grape, demands. Read more
