The 2010 Verdicchio di Matelica is a glorious wine. Round, sweet and harmonious, this entry-level Verdicchio impresses for its overall balance. This is a stunning bottle of wine for the money. Crisp green apples, flowers and minerals linger on the elegant finish. Anticipated maturity: 2011-2017.
Bisci is an excellent source for fine Verdicchio that redefines the heights this indigenous variety is capable of reaching. Once again I was blown away by the quality of the wines I tasted. I can't recommend these two Verdicchios highly enough.
