Verdicchio di Matelica DOC La Monacesca 2020

Verdicchio di Matelica DOC is a fresh white wine produced by the La Monacesca winery. It is obtained from the vinification of only grapes of the native Verdicchio vine, a representative variety of the Marche viticulture. On the lands of Contrada Monacesca where the vineyards owned by the company are located, the substrates have mineral components and a notable prevalence of clay. The vines draw nourishment to grow luxuriantly until the first days of October, when only the best bunches are carefully selected and hand-picked to then be transported to the cellar. Here the first soft pressing is followed by the two-week alcoholic fermentation in stainless steel tanks. Spontaneous malolactic fermentation takes place during the refinement phase in steel tanks, which lasts until the spring following the harvest. Verdicchio di Matelica DOC is a wine that is suitable for immediate drinking and manages to express all its varietal aromas already after bottling.
