Learn about Verdicchio — taste profile, popular regions and more …
One of central Italy’s classic white grapes, Verdicchio thrives in the Marche region; its best versions come from two distinct appellations. First, Verdicchio dei Castelli di Jesi, to the west of Ancona, is only 20 miles from the Adriatic Sea. Second, the smaller, Verdicchio di Matelica, is more inland and at a higher elevation. Castelli di Jesi is Marche’s largest DOC but the region’s best wines come from higher elevations.
