Campanelli Verdicchio dei Castelli di Jesi Classico Superiore Palombare 2023

Campanelli Palombare 2023 is a white wine from the Classico Superiore denomination of Verdicchio dei Castelli di Jesi—despite the product listing identifying it as a red wine. Made in Italy’s Marche region, it showcases Verdicchio’s distinctive combination of citrus freshness, mineral character and subtle bitter-almond complexity. The Castelli di Jesi area has been associated with Verdicchio for centuries and remains one of Italy’s most respected sources of characterful, age-worthy white wines.

Tasting Notes
Bright straw-yellow in appearance, the wine is expected to show a fresh and expressive nose, with aromas of lemon zest, green apple, white flowers and Mediterranean herbs, complemented by a gently mineral note. On the palate, crisp acidity gives the wine energy and precision, while flavours of citrus, orchard fruit and almond lead to a clean, lightly saline finish. The 2023 vintage is best enjoyed for its youthful freshness, though the natural acidity of Verdicchio can allow well-made examples to develop added roundness and subtle honeyed, nutty nuances over the next few years.

Production
Palombare is produced under the Verdicchio dei Castelli di Jesi Classico Superiore designation, which refers to wines from the historic central area of the appellation and requires a higher minimum alcohol level than standard Verdicchio dei Castelli di Jesi. The wine is based on Verdicchio, a grape well suited to the rolling hills and breezy, mineral-rich soils of the Marche. Specific details regarding harvest timing, élevage and vinification are not provided; Verdicchio of this style is commonly harvested by machine or hand and fermented in temperature-controlled stainless steel to preserve its vibrant fruit and varietal character.

Food & Serving
Serve chilled at approximately 9–11°C. Its bright acidity and mineral finish make it a natural partner for seafood, grilled prawns, calamari, shellfish, sushi and fresh fish dishes, while it also works well with pasta primavera, risotto, salads, roast chicken and young, soft cheeses. Decanting is not normally necessary, although allowing the wine to breathe briefly in the glass can help its floral and almond notes emerge.
