Garofoli, Verdicchio dei Castello di Jesi "Macrina", Marche, Italy, 2019
100% Verdicchio
CITRUS & SAGE, FANTASTIC for seafood
Garofioli is best known for its Verdicchio and is the only Marche producer to have received the honor of Gambero Rosso’s Stella award, crafting vibrant whites like this one with herbaceous spice, shining citrus, and lots of mineral on the finish. The previous generation’s two brothers took over the estate from their father in the 1970s. Today their children are taking the reins, becoming the fifth generation of winemakers in the family.
Serving Suggestions: First and foremost, this is a friend of seafood but also well-equipped for vegetarian dishes. Roasted squash casserole w/ rosemary. Calamari delle Marche.
