In the national wine scene Verdicchio di Matelica is one of the few white wines that can boast a completely native wine history, it is truly an Italian product of great thickness, recognized in all guides as a great white wine conservative of the true flavor of Mediterranean wine products.
Verdicchio di Matelica DOC must be obtained from the grapes of the Verdicchio grape variety, grapes from the Trebbiano Tuscan and Malvasia Toscana grape varieties can also contribute to production to a level not exceeding 15 % of the total.
The native bunch is conical and cylindrical, sparse or semi-sparse, with medium berries with a thin skin, yellowish green and differs from the hyesino one which vice versa is tightened. The most common cultural technique is the espalier with a “Gujot” or “double upside down” breeding system.
Verdicchio di Matelica on the nose is fragrant, fine, fresh and fruity; you can recognize hints of apple, hawthorn and broom.
The taste is dry, fresh with a persistent aftertaste of bitter almond.
Visually it is clear with straw yellow color and greenish reflections, the minimum overall alcohol content is 11.5 degrees, the total acidity can fluctuate from 5 to 7 per thousand.
This wine lends itself to all the needs of the meal, much appreciated both as a sparkling wine and as an aperitif, it goes well with lean or fish appetizers, first courses and risottos and second courses based on fish. It can be tasted with aged pecorino cheeses and sweet unleavened dough.
