Note di degustazione
The organic Villa Bucci 2018 Castelli di Jesi Verdicchio Riserva Classico Villa Bucci (with 23,000 bottles released) starts off in stainless steel but ends its winemaking phase in neutral oak casks. This extra step serves to give more volume and texture to a wine that is redolent of stone fruit, grapefruit, papaya, exotic saffron and dried ginger.

A beguiling mix of crushed hazelnut, dried apricot, dusty flowers, marzipan and stone dust makes the 2018 Verdicchio dei Castelli di Jesi Riserva Villa Bucci almost impossible to pull away from. Its medium-weight textures have an almost-glycerol feel, casting a dense wave of ripe orchard fruits and subtly sweet spices across the palate with ease. The 2018’s minerality comes through in the finale, tapering off slightly grippy yet not as structured as past vintages; a note of sour melon lingers. The Riserva of Bucci typically takes a bit of cellaring to really perform, yet the 2018 is already showing quite well today. That said, losing some bottles in the cellar for a few years certainly won’t hurt. This is a unique vintage for this wine, but one that really shouldn't be missed.
