Verdicchio Passito Antares Vignamato 2020 0,5 L
Verdicchio Passito Antares takes its name from Mars (in fact, it means "opposite of Mars") precisely because of its red-orange color reminiscent of the planet itself. The same color is assumed by the Verdicchio cluster in the drying process to which it is subjected.
In fact, the bunches are left to dry on the vine until mid-November and only with particularly favorable climatic conditions does the development of the noble rot known as Botrytis Cinerea occur, which, after vinification, gives the wine unique organoleptic characteristics.
Aging in small 225-liter French oak barrels lasts 12/14 months and then, for another 12 months it is aged in bottles.
Az Agr Vignamato di Andrea Ceci - San Paolo di Jesi
"We were born when a handkerchief of land was the most precious treasure there was. For us, today, it still is. And working it in total harmony with nature is not a choice, but our precise duty"
Since 1952, the Ceci Family has been cultivating and caring for the vineyards to produce wines that reflect the tradition of the Verdicchio territory. Alessandra, Andrea and Francesco, accompanied by their parents Maurizio and Serenella lead the family business today, preserving the old family vineyards and opening up to new wine-growing areas always within the oldest area of Verdicchio, in the idea of emphasizing the importance of zoning and the peculiarities of the different vineyards.
Precisely to achieve this result, special attention is paid to the diversification of individual vineyards, obtaining wines characterized by unique nuances. No chemicals used, only manual harvesting, aging in vitrified cement and steel containers.
The 26 hectares under vine are divided into 8 different plots that differ in unique peculiarities. Most of the vineyards are located in St. Paul and have an average age of 25-35 years. The composition of the soils differs from area to area.
The varieties grown are: Verdicchio, Incrocio Bruni, Montepulciano, Sangiovese and Lacrima di Morro d'Alba.
