Sartarelli, Verdicchio dei Castelli di Jesi Classico Superiore Balciana, 2018

This wine is 100% Verdicchio from the Marche region of Italy. Unlike its contemporaries, this Verdicchio is from a small section of an estate vineyard where the Verdicchio skins turn a dark orange red. This effect gives the wine a stunning light straw color. Orange peel, citrus and honey make up the bulk of the flavors of this bottling and a lovely light oily texture brings some extra intrigue. A wine born for charcuterie an white sauce pizza's.
