Castelli di Jesi Verdicchio Riserva DOCGCònero DOCGVerdicchio di Matelica Riserva DOCG+1

Franco Costarelli works in Cupramontana at the heart of Marche's white-wine country, commanding four DOCG denominations across the region's most demanding zones. His cellar balances the mineral Verdicchio reserves from Matelica and Castelli di Jesi—each requiring 18 months of aging—with the structured reds of Cònero, where Montepulciano and Sangiovese mature for a minimum of 24 months. Between these, the Vernaccia nera of Serrapetrona offers both still and sparkling expressions, a rare dual personality within a single terroir.
