Description
What type of wine it is
Verdicchio dei Castelli di Jesi Palombare by Campanelli is a still white wine from the Marche with an authentic profile, a pure expression of the Verdicchio Bianco grape variety. Recognised as Verdicchio dei Castelli di Jesi Classico Superiore, this glass offers an enveloping and structured sip, capable of combining fresh drinkability with significant ageing potential. Its natural harmony makes it an ideal companion at the table, capable of enhancing shellfish and lean fish, while proving equally balanced when paired with a selection of cheeses. The production, artisanal and organic, uses indigenous yeasts and matures in concrete vats.
Where it comes from
The roots of this wine are found in the soils of the renowned Palombare district, located in the territory of Sasso di Serra San Quirico, in the heart of the Marche hills. Here the rows, cultivated according to the principles of organic farming, grow at an altitude of between 330 and 370 metres above sea level. The geological profile is characterised by a subsoil of marl and sandstone, with medium-textured soils combining clay and limestone, and sandy veins that become more pronounced along the slope. This complex matrix ensures optimal ripening of the grapes, giving the wine a distinct definition and a clear territorial fingerprint.
How it is produced
The production process begins with a rigorous manual harvest, followed by whole-bunch pressing that preserves the integrity of the fruit. After the static settling of the must, fermentation takes place in concrete vats thanks to the exclusive action of indigenous yeasts, reflecting an artisanal approach aimed at enhancing the identity of the vineyard. Maturation continues in concrete, where the wine rests on its lees for seven months, enriched by frequent bâtonnage which lends complexity and volume. Ageing in the bottle for at least nine months completes the journey, consolidating the elegant texture of this limited production.
