Marche

This region is noted for its white wines from the Verdicchio grape . One of the better known Marche wines is Verdicchio dei Castelli di Jesi.

 The main regional white is the excellent Verdicchio, a dry characteristically flavored exceptional white, made from at least 85% of the grape with the same name. Both the Verdicchio di Jesi and the Verdicchio di Matelica DOC wines complement perfectly local dishes.

Other whites include the Bianchello del Metauro, made near the Metauro River estuary on the north coast of Pesaro, as well as the Bianco dei Colli Maceratesi , produced near Macerata, south of Ancona.

Among the reds, the Rosso Conero and the Rosso Piceno are particularly appreciated.

The limestone-rich soil of places like the Mount Conero, combined with the dry maritime climate, contribute to giving the Montepulciano grapes that make up these wines their characteristic flavor.
