Verdicchio Riserva 'Crisio' 2019

92

This is a wine of texture, with creamy notes and broad appeal. The Casal Farneto 2019 Castelli di Jesi Verdicchio Riserva Classico Crisio was fermented in tonneaux. Half the blend represents early-harvest fruit to preserve freshness and aromas. This wine fleshes out nicely over the palate with soft lemon cream, orchard fruit, crushed stone and petroleum. 6,600 bottles were released.

The 2019 Verdicchio dei Castelli di Jesi Riserva Crisio lifts from the glass with a confectionary blend of sweet spices, almond custard and lemon sorbet. It’s opulent and soothing on the palace, with textures of pure silk offset by a mix of salty minerals and brisk acidity. Tart orchard fruits add further tension toward the close. The 2019 tapers off long, staining and full of tension. A saline tinge and hints of sour lime slowly fade.

Salty and energetic, with baked pear, ginger root, and chamomile. Fresh and clean, with a line of crushed stone that sparks the finish.
