Organic/Bio At just 37 years of age, this was Riccardo Baldi’s 19th commercial vintage, and it’s pretty clear from this stellar 2022 that practice has very much made perfection. From 100% organic grapes fermented in tank and bottled with minimal sulfur, the wine crackles with green apple, preserved lemon, and green citrus aromas and flavors. It’s energetic and fresh, with loads of salty minerality, but not at all harsh or sharp. And both the palate and finish are long and lovely, with lingering apple, lemon and lime flavors that quench the most intense thirst (and call out for fresh shellfish!).
The Vinous 91 point review should make you thirsty: "An enticing blend of young peach, mint leaf and wet stone introduces the 2022 Verdicchio dei Castelli di Jesi Classico. This soothes with its supple textures offset by brilliant acidity and crisp minerality as ripe orchard fruits cascade throughout. It finishes long yet clean, leaving a sweet and salty impression as sour lime hints slowly fade. This fantastic, tension-filled white drinks beautifully on its own but will also pair with a large variety of cuisine."
For You If: You're looking for a truly great and distinctive Italian white to enjoy solo or with pretty much anything you're eating.
Not For You If: You're after a lot of fat texture or oak - this is crisp and oak-free.
