VERDICCHIO DEI CASTELLI DI JESI VINE CRURIOSITY
Verdicchio dei castelli di Jesi has a history and a physiognomy that has kept from the past to now becoming one of the most popular white wines in the world.
A friar said of this wine "De solar claritade et virtù eccellentissime", and people tells that Alarico when passed in Jesi castel area on the road to Rome, said "seco portasse quaranta some in barili nulla a sé stimando recar sanitade et bellico vigor melio".
A particular characteristic of the Verdicchio vineyards is that their cultivation is possible only in Jesi Castel territory. In the past this area was the basin of lagoon and its clayey/sandy soil and it is rich of minerals, like iron and magnesium. Competent sources say that the variety is on the place since the Eighteen century B.C.
Here the particular nature of the soil, the favourable climate conditions and the constant ventilation that preventes the creation of humidity on the grapes, make possible the optimal grape development.
