'La Monacesca' takes its name from a ruined Benedictine monastery in the Marche's Alta Valle d'Esino (Tuscan latitude; east coast) now underpinning the Cifola family's cellars. Aldo Cifola teamed up with consultant Roberto Cipresso and is out-Verdicchio-ing competitors with wines from his Matelica vineyards made using slightly raisined grapes. This mouthwatering vintage, with its exuberant aromatics (aniseed; apricots; greengages) and crisp, citrusy flavour goes brilliantly with fish.
