To maintain the typical characteristics of the traditional Verdicchio, the yield per hectare is kept low and harvesting is slightly delayed. The results come in a wine that is rich and complex, elegant with a solid structure that assures substantial longevity.

The Garofoli winery source the grapes from the hills in the communes of Montecarotto and Serra de ’Conti. This version of their Verdicchio sees meticulous processing to maintain freshness. A very straightforward and pleasant wine to pair with several dishes.

Tasting

Straw-yellow colour with greenish reflections. The bouquet is remarkably elegant with predominant scents of ripe fruits such as peaches, apples and exotic varieties; intense and elegant at the same time. Sapid flavour, firmly structured with a note of freshness that is exceptionally pleasing.
