Marotti Campi Luzano Verdicchio dei Castelli di Jesi Classico 2011
Ancona, Marche, ItalyVerdicchio originated in the Marche and the Marotti Campi folks have been growing it since the 19th century. Expect a ripe buttery, cashew, pear/guava nose that previews a round, creamy, soft palate with a touch of sweetness. More ripe guava, honey, baked pear, cashew, spicy, quince and butter flavours mark the palate. The finish is typically austere or sparse but it has enough ripe fruit and concentration to easily work with scallops or grilled halibut.Tasted: 03 January 2013Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:BC | $20.00 | 750ml | specialty listing |
