Belisario Terre Di Valbona Verdicchio di Matelica (2007) Marche



A Twitter-like review of a great summer wine from Belisario, a co-op started in the early 70’s that has become the world’s largest producer of Verdicchio. To lend a small-town feel to the wine, each label in Belisario’s portfolio is from its own vineyard. The Terre Di Valbona Verdicchio is a brilliant straw yellow color with hints of greenish-yellow. Fragrant nose of apple, pear and peach. Crisp acidity. Terrific food wine. Aged for two months in stainless steel. Inexpensive, but doesn’t drink like it.
