The palate reveals flavours of crisp pears, lemon peel and peach blossom, followed by a mineral, chalky note. Medium-weight, with a rich texture, deftly lifted by the bracing vein of acidity running through to the finish.

Producer

The Umani Ronchi story began in 1957 when Gino Umani Ronchi established a small farm in the heart of the Verdicchio Classico region. It was just a few years later that the Bianchi-Bernetti family purchased the farm and although they retained the original name, they have certainly put their own indelible stamp on it. With 210 hectares under vine in Castelli di Jesi, Conero and Abruzzo, and a dedicated winemaking facility in each of these regions, they have achieved scale whilst still retaining an unwavering focus on typicity and quality. The result is a range of wines which highlights both the versatility and the quality potential of the Marche’s and Abruzzo’s native grape varieties.

Vineyard

The grapes come from a vineyard near to the village of Cupramontana, planted in the early 1990s on an east facing hillside, between 250 and 350 meters above sea level, on deep clay and loam soils with poor fertility.The grapes were harvested by hand from the end of September to early October at a yield of seven to nine tons per hectare.

Winery

The grapes were gently pressed and rapidly cooled before undergoing a spell of static settling. Alcoholic fermentation took place in a mix of 60% tempertaure controlled stainless steel tanks and 40% 5,000 litre oak casks. 10-15% of the wine went through malolactic fermentation. The wine then spent a further twelve months ageing on its lees in tank and in barrel, and a further six months in bottle before release.
