Verdicchio dei Castelli di Jesi Fra Moriale
2006
 
The wine takes its name from the leader of a band of soldiers of fortune who led a series of violent raids all across the area near Ancona in the Marches. As the historian Matteo Villani recounts in the third chapter of his ''History'':'' and in the month of march of 1345, he stormed and took the castle of Staffolo, full of excellent wine''. And so the deeds of this warrior demonstrate that the wine of Staffolo, one of the historic castles which dot this classic zone for the production of Verdicchio, already existed. Fra Moriale is produced from a very special selection of the finest grapes and is aged for six months in oak barrels. It is a wine of real personality which combines the character of Verdicchio, a native grape of the region and that of the casks in which it matures. The wine is capable of an interesting evolution and development if cellared.

TCD OPINION
 
Excellent wine from a particular zone with a unique production style.
A striking straw yellow in the glass with some golden and green hues. The nose gives pleasant and delicate floral tones as well as a hint of almonds. On the palate the wine is dry and balanced with excellent ripeness and femininity, a fruity mid palate and clean finish round of this bargain priced Verdicchio. (SN - 03/08)

TCD Score: 90/100
90 points for one of the best wines available from Verdicchio grapes.
