The 2011 Verdicchio dei Castelli di Jesi Classico Superiore Casal di Serra is superb. Pears, smoke and white peaches bristle on the palate in this energetic, focused Verdicchio. All the elements are beautifully balanced. The move towards aging in steel and blocked malo has resulted in a striking wine loaded with class and personality. Anticipated maturity: 2013-2016.
