Verdicchio di Matelica
Lemons, sea spray, mineral water, almond. Focused and energetic and a great value. Paired with shrimp, fettuccine, cauliflower cream, oregano, and summer vegetables.

Very clean with great drive and acidity. Touch of salinity.

Jan 24th, 2015I usually love the V's from Italy (Verdicchio, Vernachia, Vermentino) but this one is a tad disappointing. Some delicate stone fruit, white flowers, and stone on the nose. Spritzy sensation on the tip of the tongue gives way to underripe white peach, jasmine, and a decent minerality on the mid palate but then just falls away for a disappointing, watery finish. Medium acidity. Disappointing.

Aug 23rd, 2014Really beautiful, unique $15 bottle. Supple honey hue. Bright apple and slight herbaceous, grassy notes on the nose. The finish is everything! Lemon zest, salt and chalky limestone gravel.
