Umani Ronchi

Montipagano is a pleasant, pure Montepulciano from organic farming. Strong ruby violet, great aroma of blackberry and lilac with earthy tones. On the palate beautiful fruit and structure. SUPERIORE.DE

Casal di Serra is a wonderfully fruity, balanced Verdicchio with fine minerality and freshness. Bright straw yellow. Very tasty, with a good structure and racy acidity. Thanks to its discreet aroma, it is a good companion for many occasions and one of the most popular whites in our range. SUPERIORE.DE

"Fresh nose with lemon, pear, white flowers. Fleshy white peach on the palate with herbal notes, nutty persistence." Decanter

Pure Montepulciano from the San Lorenzo vineyard: garnet red with almost black reflections, intense and noble bouquet, soft and round taste. SUPERIORE.DE

"Aromas of violets, blackberries, blueberries and cloves. It’s medium-bodied with firm, fine-grained tannins and fresh acidity. Fragrant and silky." James Suckling

Individual drop from autochthonous vine: ruby-purple, aromatic vinous scent with notes of roses, violets and undergrowth. Warm on the palate with clear tannins, soft and accessible. A fruity wine that one likes to drink again and again. SUPERIORE.DE

"Perfumed aromas of lavender, violets, rose hips, crushed blackberries and wild raspberries. It’s medium-bodied with firm, fine tannins. Gently bitter, fragrant floral notes all the way through." James Suckling

Bright yellow-green. Ripe peaches, apricots, minerals, smoke, nougat and honey closely interwoven in the aroma. Beautifully proportioned, intense, creamy, yet with a beautiful lightness and elegance on the palate, in which the barrel wood is masterfully integrated. SUPERIORE.DE

"Intense straw yellow. A little richer and more voluminous on the nose than the Vecchie Vigne of the same vintage. Ripe quince and mandarin with a suggestion of honeycomb and breadcrumbs. Lemon and mandarin fruit that is a little racy and with a savoury minerally and orange-pith notes on the finish. Great length." Jancis Robinson

"Acacia, straw, honey and fresh hazelnut nose. Peachy fruit, tangy grapefruit and melon skin on the palate. Racy acidity." Decanter

Vecchie Vigne from over 40-year-old vineyard smells seductively citrus-fruity. On the palate, a lively minerality and a slight hint of anise. The sheer exuberant taste is of fabulous elegance and length. SUPERIORE.DE

"Aromas of green apple, waxed lemon and fresh herbs. It's medium-bodied with bright acidity. Fresh and focused with a flavorful, herbed and mineral finish." James Suckling

"Made with organic fruit, the Umani Ronchi 2018 Verdicchio dei Castelli di Jesi Classico Superiore Vecchie Vigne is a very special wine that gives us a pure and transparent view onto the Verdicchio grape from old vines. The wine delivers a terrific sense of purity and depth, and it also hints at some of the compelling complexity that can be achieved when Verdicchio gets a little bit of age. Aromas of ripe peach, lemon drop and candied fruit make subtle appearances, and the wine continues with fresh fruit, light spice and crushed stone. Try it with the local seafood stew, brodetto marchigiano. This steady and beautifully intense wine is one I am happy to recommend, especially for enthusiasts of Italian whites." Robert Parker

A dark berry, radiant Montepulciano in a rich, dark garnet red. Cassis, blueberry and ripe wild raspberry on the nose. Opens on the palate with grippy tannin, juicy, powerful, savoury-spicy course. SUPERIORE.DE

"Deep lustrous ruby. Savoury-sweet oak nose with brooding dark fruit and hints of meat. The oak takes a big step back on the palate only adding a light dustiness to the cherry fruit. Bitter-sweet, powdery tannins add depth and soft grip to the fruit on the juicy finish. An international mould, which it more than manages to rise above." Jancis Robinson

"Aromas of sour cherry, blackcurrant, lemon zest, bark and licorice. It's medium-to full-bodied with firm, fine tannins. Chewy and savory with a spiced finish." James Suckling

"This is a highly recognized wine that enjoys its own special following in Italy and beyond. The 2016 Conero Riserva Cúmaro is a pure expression of Montepulciano from the Conero bluffs that dip into the Adriatic Sea on a small promontory where sunshine and sea breezes caress the vines. This wine is stacked tall and wide with dark fruit, sweet spice and cured tobacco. The wine is beautifully balanced, full and ripe. A classic Marchigiano lamb roast would pair nicely here." Robert Parker

Maximo - a Sauvignon Blanc, from grapes refined by Botrytis cinerea, smells and tastes incredibly complex. Golden with amber reflections, distinct aromas of honey, apricot and peach, followed by notes of ripe figs and candied citrus. Rich and balanced with crisp fresh persistence. SUPERIORE.DE

The rich garnet-red shining Pelago in Riserva quality from Cabernet Sauvignon, Montepulciano and small parts of Merlot shows a ravishing scent of raspberries, a noble spiciness and a hearty, juicy and very long taste. SUPERIORE.DE

"Aromas of sour cherries, currants, olives, cloves and rosemary. It's medium-bodied with firm, fine tannins and fresh acidity. Savory and juicy finish." James Suckling

"Complex nose with cedar, spices, forest fruit. Muscular tannins on the palate match jammy fruit, black olive notes." Decanter

"This wine is now celebrating its 22nd harvest. The Umani Ronchi 2016 Pelago is a blend of Montepulciano, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot aged in French oak for 14 months. This is a wine with a deep core of dark fruit and a lot of stuffing that adds textural fiber and richness. Pelago shows a downright contemporary style that is expressed in terms of volume, softness and phenolic weight (or sheer grape concentration). This is a super Marche wine from start to finish, with black cherry, blackberry, soft spice, leather and tar. The 2016 vintage is especially rich and important. When you're ready to open it, sample it with wedges of an aged goat-milk caciotta." Robert Parker

The Montepulciano vines for this powerful and terroir-rich Montepulciano grow on the Campo San Giorgio vineyard at an altitude of about 150 m on deep, chalky clay soils. The wine is unfiltered and unfined and matures for 12 months in small and large wooden barrels. The label represents the historic design of the Rosso Conero of the 1970s and the impressive result is the calling card of a long family tradition and expertise in viticulture.

Deep dark ruby red with violet and garnet reflections. Very expressive on the nose with a fruity style of cherry, plum, liquorice and herbal spice. Fresh and firm on the palate, the delicate extract sweetness gives it harmony and the silky tannins lead into a warm, very long finish. SUPERIORE.DE

"Aromas of blackberries, black peppercorns, rosemary, cloves and smoked meat. It's medium-to full-bodied with firm, fine-grained tannins and fresh acidity. Chewy and flavorful, with a savory, saline and spiced finish. Lingering wild-herb notes. Delicious." James Suckling

"The Umani Ronchi 2016 Conero Riserva Campo San Giorgio is the estate's headline wine and a pure expression of the Montepulciano grape that underlines purity, length and the staying power of the variety. This Riserva opens to tart cherry, cassis, spice, licorice and tar, offering a traditional and classic read of the Conero appellation in the Marche region that hangs over the blueness of the Adriatic Sea. This wine is polished and toned with bright berry flavors that segue to tar, licorice and grilled herb. It's perfect for a brasato alla marchigiana made with rolled up slices of braised beef and stuffed with prosciutto and pancetta." Robert Parker
