More questions
Verdicchio Jesi DOCG - Riserva Salmariano in magnum format from Marotti Campi is a white wine with a measured personality and a clear sense of place. On the nose are delicate aromas of green apple, white flowers and a light almond note that recall the character of Verdicchio. On the palate it shows balance between freshness and structure, with good salinity and a long, clean finish that invites another sip. It is a white offered with elegance without excess, suited to those looking for clarity and aromatic precision.
The Riserva designation indicates a specific choice by the winemaker; the magnum format makes it practical for shared dinners. It pairs well with seafood dishes, shellfish, baked fish and also with fresh cheeses or delicate filled pasta. It is advisable to serve it cool, avoiding emphasizing its acidity by excessive cold in the bottle.

The story
The estate was purchased by the Marotti family in the mid-19th century (first local documentary mention of the vineyard dates to 1886). Giovanni Marotti Campi began modernizing the vineyards in 1991 and the modern winery was built in 1999; the estate remains family-run (Giovanni, Francesca and son Lorenzo).
Production philosophy
Winemaking exclusively from estate-grown grapes; low-impact farming (no irrigation, limited treatments with low-dose products); careful temperature control in the cellar (thermo-conditioned tanks, use of dry ice and nitrogen for whites), pneumatic presses, ageing partly in barriques and energy self-sufficiency via solar panels installed in 2010.
Terroir and vineyards
Estate of about 120 hectares with 53 hectares planted to vines, located in Sant'Amico (Morro d'Alba, AN). Hilly vineyards around 180 m asl, medium-textured soils with notable clay; varied exposures.
