93 / 100"So much easy going, relaxed attitude in the glass, verdicchio shines. Scents of apple blossom, Meyer lemon and green apple with a lime zestiness. Acidity is keen, a driving force, bringing freshness and elevating the wine's summery fruits. Pure, clean fruit enjoys a starring role, as it should, finishing with gentle texture to close"

Tasting Notes
Hand-picked and chilled overnight before being whole-bunch pressed. We gentle pressed the fruit in order to avoid excessive phenolic extraction. The wine was fermented in stainless steel. After the primary fermentation the wine was sulphured and transferred to a large cask for ageing on the heavy yeast less fo 12-months.
Medium-full bodied textural wine, supported by saline acidity, with a long persistent palate. White stone fruit and white flowers prevail, with a hint of vibrant citrus.
