The 2004 Verdicchio dei Castelli di Jesi Classico Riserva Villa Bucci captures this wine at its best. This gorgeous, full-bodied Verdicchio is loaded with apricots, flowers and minerals all kept in balance by a marvelous sense of vibrancy and freshness. While it clearly has the acidity to age I would prefer to enjoy it in its youth.
