The 2021 Verdicchio dei Castelli di Jesi Classico is lively, with crushed rocks and sea spray giving way to zests of lime. It’s pleasantly soft in nature, with crisp green apple and a building saline tension that mounts toward the close. A sweet and sour interplay of citrus lingers through the finale, leaving savory herbal nuances through the close. This child of a warm vintage has a great balance of rich fruit and brilliant acidity.
