Casa Lucciola Riserva 2020, Organic White Wine, Verdicchio di Matelica DOCG, 13% Vol, 750 ml bottle.

Only in the best years, a meticulous selection of the best bunches in a small part of our vineyard, fermented by indigenous yeasts, a long maturation in cement returns the noblest expression of Verdicchio di Matelica in just a few bottles.     Spontaneously fermented wine, vinified in an artisanal way, maturation in steel for 9 months and another 9 months in concrete, refinement in bottle for 7 months, light filtration.  Satin cap.     Straw yellow wine, on the nose aromas of a certain complexity, which include among the most defined ripe grapefruit, white peach and chamomile.  On the palate the wine stands out more than on the nose; fresh aromas of apple, pear, ripe grapefruit and a note of bitter almond in the finish.  A certain petillance, a marked minerality and a tactile creaminess, with a persistent finish, with a well-integrated alcohol content and the good balance between fruit and acidity make it a very elegant wine for every special occasion.     Pairings: Fish dishes from the Marche and Italian cuisine, medium-aged cheeses, white poultry meat.     The continental climate of the Verdicchio di Matelica Riserva DOCG area and the quantity of mineral salts present in the soil make its terroir unique: Verdicchio here is more capable of enhancing itself with tertiarisation.  The high presence of malic acid makes it grumpy in its youth, but once malolactic fermentation has been completed the wine becomes full, complex and harmonious.  On the nose it reveals great olfactory complexity with hints of toasted almonds, cedar and honey.  On the palate it is structured, rich and opulent, warm and enveloping.
