Salerna
verdicchio dei castelli di jesi classico superiore bio
Our Verdicchio Classico came into being at the historic vineyard located in the ancient Salerna contrada at Cupramontana. A young fresh straw-yellow wine with evident greenish highlights, floral and fruity aromas, typical of the grape type, with a prevalence of acacia flowers, white fleshed fruit and a mineral finish. Rich and soft to the palate, it is well balanced and very drinkable.
Il Priore
castelli di jesi verdicchio riserva docg classico
A wine that embodies the company’s ethos, and with which we try to transmit our passion for the area, not only through this hand-drawn label but with meticulous attention to detail throughout the entire production chain. Selection of the grapes, vinification in steel tanks and prolonged ageing on lees confer a full unmistakable character. An intense straw-yellow colour with green-gold highlights, an intense complex aroma of yellow-fleshed fruit and acacia flowers, with a decidedly mineral finish. A firmly structured wine with initial softness, a fresh return and excellent lenght.
Donna Cloe
castelli di jesi verdicchio riserva docg classico
The birth of Cloe Sparapani, the eldest child of the third generation of the Sparapani family, inspired a great new Verdicchio, obtained from the best grapes and the fine woods of its protracted ageing. Straw-yellow with brillant golden highlights, seductive spicy aromas with hints of essential oils, dried fruit and nuts, candied citrus fruit and delicate vanilla. Particularly exhuberant and elegant in the mouth: full, potent and extraordinarily velvety with a delicate austere tannin finish.
Daje Tempo
igt marche bianco
This wine is intended as a reflection on traditional winemaking techniques of the past, reinterpreted through contemporary oenological knowledge. Skin maceration gives it a deep golden hue, with aromas of aromatic herbs and a full palate marked by notes of peach, ripe apricot, and a lingering hint of dried fruit. Its name recalls “that old custom,” now almost lost, of not rushing—of knowing how to wait, to be patient, to take one’s time and to give it to others. Like us, wine needs time: to grow, to mature, and to express its very best.
Le Terre
igt marche rosso
The new Le Terre label is a fusion of a watercolour by Cinzia Tonini, Giuseppe Sparapani’s wife, with the new corporate image of our products. A palette of warm intense colours that reflect the earthy tones of autumn introduces us to the ruby red with garnet highlights of the wine, the intense fruity scent of ripe red fruit and a slight spicy note. A full-bodied soft harmonious wine, gently tannic with good structure.
‘sso Gioele
igt marche rosso
Gioele is the second son of the Sparapani family, and we have chosen the exuberance and importance of the red wine, Montepulciano, for him. This well-structured wine is produced only in exceptional vintages, with a careful selection of the best grapes and is vinified alone in noble French woods. Intense ruby red with violet highlights, fruity aromas of ripe red fruit jam, rendered elegant by a delicate aroma of violets and a vanilla, spicy black pepper and cloves end note. Round weighty mouth with a velvety tannic austere finish, an exuberant dense deep wine.
Spumante Brut
metodo charmat
The fresh fruity aroma of Verdicchio grapes, brought to the fore by the Charmat second fermentation method with 4 months on the lees is represented in the rich balanced label, where the copper-gold symbolizes the generosity and elegance of his refined brut. Pale crystal-clear straw-yellow with fine persistent white froth. Fruity and floral with hints of citrus and yellow flowers, on the palate is dry, soft, and quite warm with considerable freshness and flavour, and good length.
Spumante Brut
metodo classico
The black and the dark colours, embellished with elegant hot foil stamping, characterize this label rendering the bottle “noble”, a worthy interpreter of a great brut. In the classic production method the bottle is the heart of the second natural fermentation when the froth is formed, and ageing continues on the fine lees for at least 30 months. Straw-yellow with lively vibrant highlights and fine persistent beading. Intense fragrant bready roasted nuts aroma, enriched with freshness and minerality balanced by the alcohol and assertive body, which evolves in intensity and lenght.
Spumante Dolce
metodo charmat
This sweet sparkling wine is obtained from the partial fermentation of the sparkling muscatel grape base produced according to the Charmat method. The label expresses its vitality, uniting the positivity of white with the finesse of silver. Sweet sparkling vivacious wine with a characteristic aromatic bouquet of sage, peach, honey and white flowers. In the mouth it is slightly sweet and confirms the singular olfactory notes, with noteworthy balance between the fresh and soft components. Delicate body, pleasant taste-olfactory lenght.
Grappa di Verdicchio
The lightness, freshness and elegance of this Verdicchio grappa are visible through the transparent label, which highlights the crystalline content of the bottle. The current of steam of the continuous still allows for accurate fractional distillation of the vapours, resulting in a soft balanced spirit. Crystal clear with a delicate scent and notes of sweet spices. Dry, soft and warm, harmonious balanced grappa that is subtle on the palate without being sharp-edged.
Grappa Barricata
riserva
In a coppery yellow thick glass 70 cl champagne bottle with a black label, like a premium bottle of sparkling wine, Settimio Sparapani has signed this excellent reserve grappa in order to guarantee it. Slow distillation in a current of steam and skilful ageing in oak for at least 18 months is the secret of the harmonious confident scent of this clear slightly golden grappa. Unique softness and elegance, dry and warm due to the alcohol that dissolves, leaving space for vanilla and charred wood.
