resonance and plenty of Sangiovese character

The idea that California red wines could still evolve so spectacularly seemed possible after tasting through the other Bedrock wines

but now provides firmness and freshness

inviting personality

Borgo Paglianetto 2022 Verdicchio di Matelica "Vertis", Marche, Italy June resonance and plenty of SangioveseFrom older vines (35 years) and a cooler plot with two years of ageing, the "Vertis" is a clear step up in class. Pale straw yellow with a bright glint it offers more delicate aromas of white peach, white flowers, green apple skin, and a sharper mineral vein. The palate courses with tension from the weight and mineral drive. Incredibly persistent and precise. Easily top of the class for Verdicchio and certainly one not to miss. Dare I say this wine
