Verdicchio is one of the most widely planted white grape varieties in the Marche region of central Italy. First produced in 1983 this is Umani Ronchi’s flagship Verdicchio. Grapes are selected from four vineyards ranging from 8 to 30 years old, with fermentation taking place in stainless steel tanks and wine given approximately 5 months lees contact to build its textural attributes.

Brilliant pale straw colour with greenish tinged edges and a watery hue. Lifted guava, honeydew and lime aromas end with hints of minerality. Texturally full and rounded in its feel the palate possesses intense flavours of guava, lime and pear fruit which have a vibrant fresh feel over elements of mineral. Finishes dry with crunchy acidity and a long delicious lime, guava, pear and citrusy mineral aftertaste.
Drink over the next 1-2 years.
