2022 Bisci "Vigneto Fogliano" Verdicchio di Matelica

The "Vigneto Fogliano" Verdicchio di Matelica from Bisci is a refined and elegant expression of the Verdicchio grape, grown in the cool, mountainous region of Matelica in the heart of Marche. As one of the most renowned producers in the area, Bisci focuses on quality and tradition, and this single-vineyard offering showcases the unique terroir of the Fogliano vineyard. The higher elevation and mineral-rich soils of Matelica result in a Verdicchio with greater structure, freshness, and aging potential compared to those from other regions. On the nose, the "Vigneto Fogliano" displays vibrant aromas of green apple, lemon zest, and pear, interwoven with notes of white flowers, almond, and a touch of herbs. On the palate, the wine is medium-bodied with crisp acidity and a distinct saline minerality. Flavors of citrus, peach, and a hint of honeydew melon are balanced by a refreshing, clean finish that leaves lingering notes of almond and wet stone.
