Verdicchio Di Jesi, Italy

WineSaint
Smoky minerality and orange peel leap from the glass, revealing the skin-contact treatment immediately. The palate shows impressive weight for Verdicchio, with stone fruit and wild herbs carried by electric acidity. Floral notes build through the mid-palate before a chalky, persistent finish that stays remarkably clean. This Verdicchio-Malvasia-Trebbiano blend could use more precision, but delivers compelling texture and complexity.
