Verdicchio di Matelica DOC Vigneti del Cerro 2024

It is an excellent sample of young Verdicchio di Matelica DOC, awarded by many critics and magazines for its character of varietal purity and territorial correspondence. It comes from 360 m high vineyards on the slopes of Monte San Vicino. Matelica is a valley inside the Apennine hills that separate it from the coastal strip; consequently, the microclimate is not affected by the Adriatic influence, but is conditioned by the high hills with significant diurnal range and many hours of direct sunlight. Verdicchio gives wines of great character and in Matelica it can produce intense and elegant wines.

The grapes are pressed and the free-run must is left to settle at low temperature. Alcoholic fermentation takes place in stainless steel vats at a controlled temperature with the addition of selected yeasts. Finally, the wine ages for 5 months in stainless steel vats.
