  • Dinner at sweet basil. Loved this wine. Interesting fruit, body and depth of flavor. Wonderful minerality. Fantastic food beverage. Not your Nonna’s Verdicchio. Winner

  • Chilled. Cork seal.

    Bought from The Wine Society £22.00

    N…ground almonds, apple purée, ripe lemon peel and grapefruit pith, a bit of quince skin, all of it medium intensity.

    C….light gold, looks Light body.

    T… lovely deep earthy flavours and interesting fruit, immediately charming; medium-dry on the scale; at 2 yrs old drinking superbly, I’d say maybe mature at 5 years; a bit of length here, but not huge; aromatic impressions reflected in the mouth, a really pleasant interesting glass of Italian white. More a Foodie style, but a classy Quaffer too; body is light, not medium; wood is there but feels very clean/almost unoaked. I’m liking this light touch on the wood, I have to say.

    A later tasting, maybe an hour later, reveals too some pear and a slight white tannin. It seems to get better with air and time. I’m going to keep some back for tomorrow.

    Ripe green apple, quince, ripe lemon, some passion fruit, grapefruit.

    VFMoney? Feels worth it’s £22.00 price. Will buy again. I’ve been drinking this Bucci Verdicchio for years, I’ll keep buying it in reportedly good seasons/vintages.

  • From a 375cl bottle.
    A pale straw yellow , with a nose that is slow to reveal itself. Intially, white flowers and pears and pink grapefruit, but with aeration a more complex range of aromas are revealed - green apples, honey/beeswax, quince, almonds, and a savoury note of herbs and hints piney eucalyptus. High acidity, medium bodied, with flavours of ripe apples, unripe peaches, and saline lemon, leading into a satisfyingly rounded nutty finish. When pnpd, this wine appears plain and generic , but with a bit of time, shows real depth and complexity. Accompanied pesto- coated salmon and the first English asparagus of the season, on our first really warm day of this cool spring !
