Kristin and Elena share their love of the Marche region, a narrow piece of land between the Apennines and the Adriatic Sea in Central Italy. Whether you are hiking in the mountains or catching some rays in a seaside town, this under the radar region is worth the trip! In medieval times it was divided into three different domains, or Marches, and for a time played an important role in the Papal States. Elena and Kristin present the region’s super star wine, Verdicchio, and the wide range of expressions – young and fresh, or truly cellar worthy bottlings. The Garofoli family is famous for their contributions to the wine industry of Le Marche for five generations, with every generation leaving their mark. Of course no Vinoteca segment is complete without food suggestions, and both pairings presented here will complete the Verdicchio experience!
