Falerio dei Colli Ascolani, also known simply as Falerio, is a white Italian wine originating from the Marche region in central Italy. The wine is named after the town of Falerone, located in the province of Fermo, which in turn takes its name from the ancient Roman city of Faleria.
This wine is typically made with a blend of grapes, primarily Trebbiano and Passerina, possibly mixed with Pecorino, Pinot Bianco or other local white varieties. The wine is characterized by its straw yellow color, delicate aroma, and its fresh, balanced taste.
Falerio is often light-bodied, with low alcohol content and a crisp, fruity flavor profile. Some describe its bouquet as aromatic, floral, and sometimes with notes of green apple and citrus.
Falerio dei Colli Ascolani is recognized as Denominazione di origine controllata (DOC), a quality assurance label for Italian wines. This means that it meets production regulations that protect the traditional winemaking practices of its region, ensuring quality, authenticity and regional identity.
The wine pairs well with a variety of dishes, particularly fish, shellfish, white meats, and cheeses. It is also enjoyed as an aperitif.
The wine should ideally be served cool, at a temperature of around 8 to 10 degrees Celsius, and is usually intended to be drunk young. Its acidic structure and fresh fruit flavors are usually best enjoyed within a few years of the vintage.
