Azienda Agricola Vignamato is a family-run estate in San Paolo di Jesi, in the historic Classica area of Castelli di Jesi, Marche. Founded in 1952 by Amato and Maria Ceci, it is now managed by the second and third generations of the Ceci family. Verdicchio is the focus, alongside Incrocio Bruni 54 and local red varieties, with vineyards cultivated organically and a stated commitment to reducing inputs and environmental impact. The family works with separate vineyard parcels to preserve their individual character, using cement and stainless-steel vessels, while allowing Verdicchio to develop through bottle ageing. Clay-sandy and calcareous soils, hill sites, and Adriatic-influenced air currents shape the wines, which emphasize the distinctive terroir and longevity of Verdicchio dei Castelli di Jesi.
