  • The 2021 Verdicchio dei Castelli di Jesi Classico Le Vaglie is quite coy in the glass, as nuances of young peach and pear are complemented by hints of chamomile. It washes across the palate with saline intensity and tart orchard fruits, creating a tense yet also juicy sensation. The 2021 finishes lightly structured with a staining of primary concentration and hints of savory spice. A little more time in bottle should allow the Le Vaglie to come further into focus.

A sweet blend of white flowers, candied lime and Jordan almonds wafts up from the 2021 Verdicchio dei Castelli di Jesi Classico Superiore Stefano Antonucci. This is silky smooth, nearly oily in feel, with perfumed orchard fruits and sweet inner florals that swirl throughout. The 2021 keeps the pleasure dial high as it finishes with an air of citrus custards and the slightest tinge of salty minerality.
