2020 Colleleva Verdicchio dei Castelli di Jesi Blanc
Tasting Notes: This low-alcohol, youthful bianco has a subtle, chalky texture you might find in much pricier French Chablis.
This private-label Verdicchio is to white wine what the Kermit Lynch Côtes du Rhône is to red. Both are well-priced crowd-pleasers that punch above their weight and seem to always deliver. Here, gentle aromas of fresh flowers and crisp apples emerge from the glass and make for a splendid little wine that can pair with almost anything. Need a wine to please everyone at your next dinner party without feeling too guilty for splashing a bit in your risotto? Look no further!
A famous investor—I think it was Jimmy Buffett—once said, “Price is what you pay. Value is what you get.” What you get here is a lovely, unfussy bottle of stone fruit–scented Italian white that’s a joy to drink. Try a bottle for the price. Buy a case for the value.
