AZ. AGR. BALLARINI LEONARDO

Since 1994, Ballarini Leonardo has been working in the Parco del Conero area, where Montepulciano and Sangiovese grapes meet the Adriatic climate, yielding structured red wines that demand two years of aging. From this starting point, the winery has expanded its reach to cover four Marche denominations, a map that traverses very different styles and grape varieties. The four DOCG designations paint a broad picture of regional enology: Cònero for structured reds, Vernaccia di Serrapetrona for sparkling wines made from black grapes, and two white Verdicchio Riserva wines, from Matelica and Castelli di Jesi, both destined for longevity. Summarized this way, they reveal a producer who rejects monoculture to oversee sparkling wines, age-worthy reds, and reserve whites with the same demand for intensity and clarity. Visitors to the winery can taste these four denominations in sequence, understanding, bottle after bottle, how time takes on a precise meaning here.
