Villa Bucci

Villa Bucci is a family-owned winery located in the picturesque region of Le Marche, Italy. The winery has a long history dating back to the 1700s when it was originally founded by the Bucci family. Today, the estate is run by Ampelio Bucci, the 4th generation of the family, who continues to maintain the winery's tradition of producing high-quality wines.

The Bucci family takes great pride in their vineyards, which are located in the heart of the Castelli di Jesi appellation. This region is known for its hilly terrain and ideal microclimate, making it a perfect location for growing grapes. The winery's 35 hectares of vineyards are primarily planted with the local Verdicchio grape, which is indigenous to the Le Marche region.

Villa Bucci is committed to sustainable and organic winemaking practices. The winery uses only natural fertilizers and avoids the use of chemicals and pesticides, which allows the grapes to fully express their terroir. The result is wines that are authentic, vibrant, and true to their origin.

The flagship wine of Villa Bucci is the Verdicchio dei Castelli di Jesi Classico Riserva. This wine is produced from the oldest vineyards on the estate and is aged in large oak barrels, giving it a complex and elegant character. It has received numerous accolades and awards, including a 95-point rating from Wine Enthusiast.

In addition to their flagship wine, Villa Bucci also produces a range of other Verdicchio wines, including a sparkling version and a passito (dessert) wine. Each wine reflects the unique characteristics of the terroir and showcases the versatility of the Verdicchio grape.
