Tenuta di Tavignano Misco Riserva Verdicchio dei Castelli di Jesi 2016

Ancona, Marche, ItalyThis family owned and operated winery made a decision in the 1990s to focus on the autochthonous varieties of their region in Tavignano's hills, and in particular, Vedicchio. This low yield Classico Riserva spent one year on lees (no batonnage) before at least 18 months in bottle prior to release. The careful elevage shows, with layers of gentle lees woven amongst meadow herbs, subtle acacia, ripe quince, anise, marcona almonds, river stone, citrus, all worn slightly, positively, with a few year's time, subtly filling out the 14 degree frame. Drinking absolutely ideally now, especially with halibut or scallops.Tasted: 27 March 2020Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:
