Collestefano Verdicchio di Matelica
Matelica, Macerata, Marche, Italy
Crisp, fragrant fruits
Elegant green, a bit like cut grass note, but not vulgar
Purple flowers and marzipan
Quite long
Long life ahead
A good feeling to find out that someone still keeps making the same old good wine
Still fairly cheap

The 2019 Verdicchio di Matelica is racy and vibrant in the glass with a kiss of sweetness that I’m finding quite alluring. Lemon zest, peppery herbs and florals give way to crushed limestone and hints of peach. It’s soothing and gentle, yet with enough juicy acids and spice to create a wonderfully balanced expression. Salty minerals linger long on this tension-filled and thirst-quenching Verdicchio. (Eric Guido, Vinous, September)

Balanced acidity and great minerality. White flower and mild honey on the nose. Very smooth almost creamy finish. If you love green, crisp Sauvignon Blanc but want a bit more body and something new, don’t hesitate.
