2020 Verdicchio dei Castelli di Jesi Classico Superiore ‘Misco’ Tenuta di Tavignano

“Run since 2021 by Ondine de la Feld, whose uncle Stefano Aymerich di Laconi acquired the 230ha estate in 1973 with his wife Beatrice Lucangeli, Tavignano has been certified organic since 2018. It lies at 300m near Cingoli on a hill that commands an all-round view of the surrounding area, close to the river Musone. Its best parcel of Verdicchio vines overlooks the river, the Latin for which, ‘Miscus’, gives its name to the wine. Fermented in stainless steel tanks, where it spends 12 months on its lees followed by a further 18 months in bottle. AH Very complete and complex Verdicchio, fine combination of crisp, fresh fruit, some nutty hints and a mineral undertow. Drinking well now, with the potential for several years yet. SB Herbaceous aromas, then citrus and mineral flavours. Very pure, clean and balanced. MG Fragrant, herbal pineapple and white peach aromas. Ripe and juicy with good freshness still, very clean and shapely.”
