Verdicchio

From Matelica the most interesting zone of Verdicchio. Pale, lemon yellow in colour, the 2009 is fresh and aromatic, with perfumes of white flowers and a touch of acacia honey. On the palate it is intense, with lovely depth of ripe, peachy fruit with a lemon twist on the finish.

Golden in colour, this wine has a layered bouquet, reminiscent of vanilla, butterscotch, almonds and nuts. Aromas of mimosa and ripe Golden Delicious apples continue on the complex palate, which has a fresh finish. There is also a mineral edge to the ripe, round flavours of wildflower honey.

This beautiful wine from Moncaro, based in The Marche region of Italy is dense straw yellow in colour with green notes. On ageing, this award winning wine develops a golden-yellow hue. On the nose the wine is incredibly intense with strong fruity aromas lifted by hints of citrus, honey and floral notes. Dry but ultra smooth and soft on the palate.
