This white wine, Colli Maceratesi Binco, has recently gained recognition and attentions, due to the local grape, Maceratino. As indicated, the wine’s name comes from the town of Macerata.
Colli Maceratino Bianco is a delicate white wine, made from the Maceratino grape (70-100%), also known as Ribona or Montecchiese, but now you have to hold one tight, because in addition to the main grape, the following grapes may be used: Incrocio Bruni 54 and/or Pecorino and/or Trebbiano Toscano and/or Verdicchio and/or Chardonnay and/or Sauvignon and/or Malvasia Bianca Lunga (locally known as Malvasia Toscana) and/or Grechetto (only in the province of Macerata, and only 30% maximum). The cherry on the top is represented by the authorized addition of local grapes (15%).
The wine has a straw yellow color, the scent is characteristic and inviting. The taste is dry and balanced, which makes the wine a perfect accompaniment of regional fish dishes.
The wine is also available as Colli Maceratesi Spumante and Colli Maceratesi Passito.
