Welcome back! Today we are longing for the sun drenched Adriatic Coast as we dream of rolling out our beach towels, kicking off our flip flops and taking in the Italian Seaside. What did you bring to the beach with you? A cold bottle of Verdicchio Castelli de Jesi? Perfect.
(I haven't been on vacation in so long!)
Le Marche may not be home to any of the rockstars of Italian wine like Chianti or Barolo but is is absolutely worth a closer look.
