Vallerosa Bonci

About Winery and Wines

Cupramontana rises from the very heart of the Marche Region, on one of the sun-kissed green hills lining the right-hand bank of the Esino river. This is the ancient and noble homeland of Verdicchio. It is also the site where four generations ago the Bonci family started their production and sale of wines. It all began with Domenico Bonci, in the first few years of the last century. As well as developing his own production through an accurate selection of producers and associated products carried out employing the wisdom of a true connoisseur, his vision also extended to reserving the best batches for the many transalpine visitors who displayed an interest in these fruits of the earth processed by such fine craftsmanship. Bonci's Grand Crus take their names from the quarters of Cupramontana which are home to its twenty-six hectares of vineyards. San Michele is obtained from land in an area bearing the same name, the most ancient and one especially associated to Verdicchio. Viatorre derives from a vineyard located in the Torre area, where the winery also resides. Here the earth displays a medium texture and gives birth to a fresh and floral glass. Manciano features a greater clay content streaked with sand and looks to the east, giving a floral Cru with soupcons of aniseed and sage. Pietrone, with its stunning golden yellow hue represents the namesake of the area it comes from.
