This wine is made using Vernaccia Nera (black vernaccia) (min. 85%) grapes and 15% of it may be composed of non-aromatic red grapes. The importance of this wine comes from the uniqueness of the Vernaccia Nera, recognised as an autochthonous varietal from the Marche. This wine has a very complex structure and goes well with various types of meat, including game. It also pairs well with pasta in tomato sauces, like pappardelle in wild boar sauce, as well as with seasoned pecorino cheeses. Serrapetrona wine is made in areas which include the entire Serrapetrona district and parts of the territory surrounding Belforte del Chienti and San Severino Marche.
