Marche

Viticulture in the Marche has ancient roots dating back to Etruscan times, and over the centuries, it has become an important activity for the local economy, with medieval expansion of cultivation thanks to the Benedictine monks.
The fame of Marche wines spread throughout Europe in the 19th century, only to suffer a crisis due to competition from wines of other Italian regions. It regained prominence only in recent decades, thanks to the rediscovery of native varieties and the introduction of new cultivation and winemaking techniques.

Thanks to its pedoclimatic characteristics, the Marche is particularly suited to viticulture, although the climate varies greatly depending on the arrangement and altitude of the relief. In coastal and southern areas, the climate is Mediterranean, warmer and drier, while in the inland and northern areas, it is continental, with greater temperature variations and the risk of frost.
Soils also vary depending on the subzone: three types of soils can be identified – calcareous soils in the hilly areas, clayey soils in the flat valleys, and sandy soils in the coastal strip.

Ancona coast

The climate in this region varies from sub-continental in the north of Ancona to Mediterranean in the south. The majestic Monte Conero rises here, significantly influencing the microclimate of the vineyards that lie on its southeastern slopes, where the soil is rich in limestone and potassium.

In the province of Ancona, three of the five DOCG wines of the Marche region can be found, showcasing the region's rich winemaking tradition. The Conero DOCG, made from Montepulciano and Sangiovese grapes, is particularly ancient and has been highly regarded since the time of Pliny the Elder. The Rosso Conero DOC, a derivative of the Conero DOCG, also uses Montepulciano grapes.

Verdicchio is the foundation of the Castello di Jesi Verdicchio Riserva DOCG and Verdicchio di Matelica Riserva DOCG, both shared with the province of Macerata. These grapes are also used in the Verdicchio dei Castelli di Jesi DOC and Verdicchio di Matelica DOC denominations.

Ancona is also home to seven regional DOCs, including Lacrima di Morro d’Alba DOC, a red wine made from the ancient native Lacrima grape. Esino DOC and Colli Maceratesi DOC, both shared with Macerata, include various grape varieties and produce white, red, and sparkling wines. The Rosso Piceno DOC, covering a wide area of the Marche, is primarily made from Montepulciano and Sangiovese.

Finally, the Marche IGT denomination encompasses all types of wine produced in the region using authorized grape varieties.
