Verdicchio Marches 2010
The Matelica region is known for powerful and complex Verdicchio wines. This 2010 example is crisp, lively and mineral driven with white peach and lemon zest aromas. Flavors of lemon, pink grapefruit and underripe papaya have a mineral snap.

The Marche (Mar-kay) is a mountainous region stretching along central Italy’s east coast. Most of the vineyards are in the foothills between the Apennines range and the Adriatic Sea. Verdicchio vines thrive along the Esino River as it flows through the picturesque village of Matelica. For many critics, Verdicchio from Matelica and also from its better known neighbor, Castelli di Jesi, produce Italy’s best white wines. Established in 1971, Belisario Cambrugiano is a cooperative comprised of 180 dedicated growers. Sourcing fruit from over 700 acres, winemaker Roberto Potentini selects only the finest lots for his two Verdicchio bottlings, which consistently receive Italy’s highest accolades.
Many Verdicchios work best with simply prepared shellfish or seafood dishes but can also stand up to poultry, pork or veal. A whole roasted chicken stuffed with lemon and onion would be a delightful pairing. Pasta and risotto dishes with relatively rich, cream-based sauces can also be spectacular. And this is one of the few wines that pairs well with egg-based dishes, such as mixed-vegetable quiche or frittata.
“Wine is constant proof that God loves us and wants to see us happy.” ~ Benjamin Franklin
