Borgo Paglianetto Verdicchio, 2021, 750ml

Description

Borgo Paglianetto is a relatively new winery born in 2008. In the central area of the Marche region are the vineyards that span the valley between Fabriano and Camerino. The wines come from the production area of Verdicchio di Matelica. This region is a short distance from the Adriatic Sea and dredged in the history of its vine growing. The closed-off Alta Valle dell ‘Esino within Matelica is unique in that it boasts north-south facing vineyards, in turn creating a unique microclimate for these vines. Borgo has a clear mantra of using the historic land to express terroir through quality and passion.

The meaning behind “Vertis” comes from the Latin word “Vertere” which means to turn, though simply means “the highest point.” The vines for this wine are 20 years old and ageing takes place over six months.
