Casal di Serra is Umani Ronchi’s flagship Verdicchio Classico Superiore, grown in the hills of the Marche region, near the Adriatic coast. The 2021 vintage was fermented in stainless steel at cool temperatures to retain freshness, then rested on fine lees for several months to build texture and complexity. Produced from low-yielding vines in the historic Castelli di Jesi area, this wine shows the elegance and ageing potential of Italy’s great white grape, Verdicchio.
Bouquet Fresh and expressive with aromas of lemon zest, white peach and wild herbs. Hints of almond, chamomile and crushed stone bring added complexity.
Palate Dry and structured with vibrant acidity and a long mineral finish. Flavours of citrus, green apple and soft spice are layered over a fine, chalky texture. Elegant and refreshing with a savoury edge.
Food Pairing Ideal with seafood risotto, grilled fish, herbed chicken or fresh cheeses. Also excellent with artichokes, courgette fritters or lemon-infused pasta.
