Pignocco Verdicchio di Jesi DOC - Santa Barbara

The reintroduction of great indigenous grape varieties like Verdicchio and Montepulciano, and the creation of wines with an international taste, possessing originality and a strong personality—these are the goals that the Santa Barbara winery has pursued since its founding. No easy feat, but the winery is aware that winemaking requires courage and a certain willingness to take risks, which, for imaginative talents like its own, often leads to great satisfaction. These are qualities that Stefano Antonucci, the energetic and charismatic head of Santa Barbara, possesses in abundance. This self-made winemaker has managed to create a treasure trove of oenological gems, from which original products emerge each year, winning prestigious prizes and awards. Color: straw yellow with greenish reflections. Aroma: floral, especially hawthorn, with typical fruitiness of peach and almond. Taste: fresh and spicy on the palate, persistent, with an almond finish.
