Verdicchio dei Castelli di Jesi

Verdicchio dei Castelli di Jesi is a white-wine DOC located in the Marches region of central Italy. In 2010 the riserva form of the wine was singled out for promotion to full DOCG status. The terroir here is ideal for the production of mineral-tinged dry white wines, thanks mostly to its calcareous, clay and limestone-rich soils and a relatively dry maritime climate.
