Description
Verdicchio is a white Italian wine grape variety grown primarily in the Marche region of central Italy. The name Verdicchio derives from verde and refers to the slight green/yellow hue that wines made from the grape can have. In addition to producing still wines, Verdicchio grapes are also commonly used to make sparkling wines.
Verdicchio is a medium-bodied wine with a crisp, clean flavour profile which makes it the perfect aperitif wine. It is excellent for warm weather sipping on the patio and at the same time, the mouthwatering acidity and clean citrus flavours of lemon and grapefruit make it a great wine to pair with a variety of foods.
Food Pairing: Sushi, raw fish, herby pasta sauces like pesto, white fish, vegetable dishes.
