CANTINA MONCARO

MARCHE

Vineyards: viticultural region: Marche, province of Ancona.
Location: Contrada Novali vineyard in the commune of Castelplanio.
Age: 7-35 years.
Soil: very deep with presence of stones and prevalence of sands and clays of Plio-Pleistocene and Miocene, with tendency to limestone.

Grape varieties and cultivation: grapes: 100% Verdicchio. Training system: upside down and double guyot.

Vinification: late harvesting of the grapes at the end of the harvest and partly overripe with development of noble rot. Vinification: short cold maceration of the skins and soft pressing with static decantation of the must. Fermentation with selected indigenous yeasts and subsequent maceration on the fine lees for 10 months in stainless steel tanks and a small part in Allier barriques. Aging: the wine ages for over 18 months in bottle.

Food pairing: its elegant and soft structure and convincing sapidity suggest to grant it to important seafood dishes, both traditional and modern cuisine. The sublimation comes with first courses in white fish sauces (risotto and spaghetti with clams) and with vegetable base. It is unrivalled with blue fish. Excellent marriage with white meats of low court up to young sheep, as well as in various truffle elaborations and on foie gras.

Serving temperature: 12° C.
