Verdicchio is always great with fish. Had cod with a lemon/ wine/ butter sauce and this was good. Not the most memorable or expressive verdicchio I’ve had, but nice. Minerally, good acidity and subdued fruit. I find the ones from Metalica have less of that signature almond taste than those of Jesi. — 6 months ago
A very earthy and mushroomy aroma, round on the palate with some lemony acidity. Unique and very nicely balanced. Surprisingly drinkable for an Italian white for me! — 2 years ago

Spring 2020. This was very similar to the standard bottling, with just a bit more intensity and a bit more bittersweet almond - very nice indeed. — 6 years ago
A bit of mineralality and salinity, complex but not overly barnyard. A true delight. — 7 years ago
Nose: nice. Elegantly floral.
Palate: ok. Sweet lemon. Mineral.

So much deliciousness in the glass. Verdicchio crushing it again and again. Vibrant, succulent, zippy acid and loads os texture and charm. My favorite IT white grape. Ripe yellow fruit, a kiss of tropical to it, peach, meyer lemon, plum; exotic herbs and floral tones, jokingly saying it smells like Garnier Fructise shampoo, but its herbal, fennel, aloe, verbena all together, lovely salty mineral backbone, green almonds, cheese rind and lemon cream. Great length and finish, the acid balances the phenolic structure and body of the wine perfectly. All concrete and lees contact make for a distinctive wine here. — 7 years ago
Ceccherini Cristiano
One of the most reliable and affordable Verdicchio producer. It used to make just the one label you see here, but now they make another one from young vines and a rose if i am right.
I love the mineral expression of Matelica.
This came from a magnum. It was sensational, too easy too drink. It went so quickly you could miss what you were drinking and you could go back and keep asking...what was it? What was it?what was it?...and on and on and on....
I reckon when people think of a stereotype of good Italian wine this is what we should think of..at least i wish...Cheers!!! — a month ago
