VERDICCHIO OF THE CASTELLI DI JESI CLASSIC RESERVE DOCG

The denomination «Riserva» is the highest expression of Verdicchio. «Luna» comes from a single vineyard, more than sixty years old, from which a wine of great structure and great value is obtained, with a peculiar combination of freshness, aromatic complexity and aging potential (from 5 to 10 years, or more, for the best vintages).

👁️ To the eye it is golden yellow, typical of an aging Verdicchio, which intensifies in the longer-lived versions.

👃🏻 The nose reveals fruity hints, in particular of white fruit, apple and pear, citrus, lemon and grapefruit, white flowers and dried fruit, almond, minerals, intense and marked.

👄 The palate is dry, harmonious, with a good structure and persistence; the acidity is well balanced by the softness, with a pleasant freshness; the finish is long and slightly almondy.
