2021 Pievalta Verdicchio dei Castelli di Jesi Classico Superiore “Tre Ripe” [Rating: 4/5 | $19]

Tasted on March 5, 2024. #DailyWine #Wine #Verdicchio #Marche #VerdicchioDeiCastelliDiJesi #Pievalta

A very mineral, salty Verdicchio with floral accents.

Dry white wine, 13% alcohol. Very pale, with just a hint of lemon color. A bit closed initially, probably just too cold. Faint mineral aromas – almost a salty note – and citrus, almonds and marzipan. Medium body, on the lighter side. Fresh acidity and good persistence of flavors. The mineral and salty accents are present even in the palate. There’s a hint of flowers that becomes more prominent with air. Very complex.
