Description
The 505 mt. project was born from the idea of producing a cuvée blended from vineyards located in the estate's highest area, at 505 meters above sea level, around the municipality of Cupramontana. This area is particularly suited to the production of high-quality white wines, where the landscape overlooking the sea meets the highest peaks of Monte San Vicino. The label was designed and conceived specifically to communicate the desire to produce a wine that is a pure expression and identity of the terroir in which it is produced, characterized by the presence of the Umbria-Marche Apennines, which enhance the organoleptic properties of one of Italy's greatest grape varieties: Verdicchio. The Boccafosca Estate is located in the heart of the Marche region, nestled in the gentle slopes that characterize the Castelli di Jesi area, and extends to the coast of the Adriatic Sea.

Over time, we have focused more and more on conscious agriculture, on winemaking processes that preserve the qualities of the raw material, embracing new technologies and preserving the secrets of rural tradition...
We all come from an ancient agricultural background, a peasant culture made up of lands handed down from father to son, where the vineyard and the wine produced in the 'underground' cellars of each farmhouse could not be missing. Today we are two families who run this business. We are divided between those who take care of the vineyard and those who take care of the production up to the marketing, a daily work on the front line, a roundabout of people and passion, who when they speak of wine, speak of love for the land, speak of daily life, speak of memories...
Boccafosca is located in the centre of the Marche region, the vineyards extend from the gentle hills of the Castelli di Jesi to the Adriatic Sea, with altitudes reaching 450 metres above sea level at Cupramontana. The latter has been the protagonist of an important work of vineyard zoning and study of the pedoclimatic characteristics of each slope. Read more
