Verdicchio di Matelica
D.O.C. Organic
1982-2022 40° anniversary
Our ‘First’ wine obtained entirely from Verdicchio grapes from vineyards of different ages. The oldest from 1978 and the most recent from 2016. The grapes harvested by hand and placed in boxes are transported immediately to the cellar and undergo a soft pressing. The obtained must is transferred to the fermentation glazed concrete vats.
Certified organic (CCPB) starting from vintage 2019.
