Made from 100% Passerina grapes from the company's vineyards in Ascoli Piceno, this Villa Angela, Marche IGT is a wonderful aperitif white. Served chilled, with an accompaniment of small appetizers, it can literally be addictive. Hard to switch to a different bottle when it comes time to sit down at the table. In the country, harvesting requires great care. Only the best bunches are selected to be sent to the delicate vinification phase that begins with a soft pressing, followed by a sudden lowering of the temperature to favour the decantation of the must. Immediately afterwards it is time for the fermentation which takes place in steel tanks at a controlled temperature. This is followed by a slow refinement phase that lasts until February. And even in this case, in order to preserve the rich aromatic heritage of the grapes, maturation takes place in temperature-controlled steel tanks. Bright yellow with light golden hues, this Passerina is characterized by its pleasantly floral bouquet, reminiscent of white flowers, and fruity, with clear sensations of apple and citrus. In the mouth it is above all fresh and sapid, with a nice structure and a perfect balance between all its components.
It all began with two very young entrepreneurs, Angela and Ercole Velenosi. It was 1984. The company's headquarters is located in Ascoli Piceno, in the heart of the Marche region, about 20 kilometres from the Adriatic coast, at an altitude of about 200 metres above sea level. The company's estates are located in the hills, where clayey and fertile soils have always been considered ideal for the cultivation of vines. Four separate farms located in Ascoli Piceno, Castorano, Monsampolo del Tronto and Castel di Lama, with a vineyard in the area of Ancarano, in the province of Teramo, and one in the area of San Marcello, in the province of Ancona, in the Castelli di Jesi. Velenosi wines are often awarded by the most severe national and international critics and are distributed in more than 52 countries in the world. Today the total production is around 2 and a half million bottles per year. But, as the company says, the projects in the pipeline are not finished yet.
