AboutVilla Bucci
Ampelio Bucci founded Villa Bucci at Ostra Vetere in 1983, building on his family’s farming roots in the Marche. Federico Veronesi took the lead in July 2024, retaining the estate’s long-standing team.
Verdicchio is central to the vineyards at Serra de’ Conti, Montecarotto and Ostra Vetere. The vineyards are organically certified, with calcareous-clay soils and cooling Adriatic breezes. The cellar includes large old Slavonian-oak casks for ageing.
Bucci 2018 Verdicchio dei Castelli di Jesi Classico Superiore
Italian White
Deep straw colour leads into a fruity, persistent profile of Golden Delicious apple and almond. The palate has good body, balance, silky texture and finesse. Verdicchio is harvested by hand, gently pressed and vinified by vineyard parcel in stainless steel. Only the first pressing is selected, with no skin contact. The wines remain on their lees until spring, and malolactic fermentation is not induced.
