The Verdicchio di Jesi DOC "Back to Basics" from Santa Barbara is an organic white wine that focuses on clear expression and an essential flavor profile. In the glass it shows a luminous straw-yellow color; on the nose it opens with notes of citrus, green apple and light floral hints. On the palate it displays a saline, fresh texture, with balanced acidity that supports the sip without weighing it down. The finish is clean and of good persistence, with a touch of almond typical of the Verdicchio family.

It is suited to relatively youthful drinking to capture the aromatic liveliness, yet remains versatile at the table. It pairs with light fish dishes, shellfish, seafood salads and vegetable-based pasta; it is also a suitable choice for aperitifs. Serve at around 8–10 °C. Produced and presented with attention to sustainability, it is intended for those seeking a direct, clean white wine for immediate enjoyment.

Winery history

Production philosophy
Passion and innovation, respect for the land and grapes. The estate often makes experimental yet drinkable wines: “to make the wine that I like first of all, a wine for the drinker.” Organic practices are used for some labels, including Back to Basics.
Terroir and vineyards
