MARCHE

Marche is a beautiful, underrated region of central Italy, nestled between the Apennine Mountains and the Adriatic Sea. Its landscape is a patchwork of rolling hills and ancient hilltop towns, benefiting from a climate that perfectly balances cool mountain air with maritime influences. Historically known for high-quality agriculture, Marche has become one of Italy’s most reliable sources for authentic, mineral-driven wines that reflect its unique geography.

The undisputed star of the region is Verdicchio. Whether from the hills of Jesi or the higher-altitude vineyards of Matelica, these white wines are celebrated for their vibrant acidity, citrus notes, and a signature hint of bitter almond on the finish. They are incredibly versatile and age surprisingly well. On the red side, Montepulciano and Sangiovese thrive along the coast, particularly in Rosso Conero, where they produce deep, brambly wines with a distinct savoury character. For those looking for a true taste of coastal Italy, Marche offers precision and character in every bottle.
