"FOLLONICA"
VERDICCHIO CLASSICO
PRODUCER: CANTINE PIERSANTI
DOC MARCHE


Verdicchio put the Italian region of Marche on the wine map when it brightened restaurant tables around the world in its green amphora bottle.

But even as the amphora went out of style Verdicchio continued in its time-honoured role as the nonpareil of fish wines.

Credit is due to producers in the large Castelli di Jesi zone who have created a new image of Verdicchio as a white whose special character comes across winningly in sober standard bottles.

Verdicchio Follonica is a wine pale straw with green tints, it has a fine scent, taut dryness and good fruit-acid balance underlinedd by a hint of bitter almond.

Verdicchio can develop impressively with three to four years of age.
