Description:
Umani Ronchi own 110 hectars in the Verdicchio Classico area, 60 hectars in the Rosso Conero, and 30 in Abruzzi. Although Umani Ronchi are leading exponent of two native wines of the Marches - Verdicchio and Rosso Conero - wines from foreign grape varieties, notably Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, have resulted in wines that have achieved international acclaim. The unique and recognizable style of the wines comes from the Marche region, framed by glorious hills that meet the waters of the Adriatic Sea. Montepulciano d'Abruzzo is one of the most widespread native varieties of Italy, mainly along the Adriatic coast. It is appreciated for its full, mellow qualities due to its low acidity. The production area for this excellent wine stretches along most of the coastal foothills of Abruzzi and back into the mountains along the valley of the Pescara river. A blend of 90% Montepulciano, 10% Sangiovese, after a careful selection of the grapes, fermentation on the skins occurs for 10 days. After the malolactic fermentation, the wine is stabilized and reaches its maturity with the refinement in the bottle. Ruby red colourwith purple reflections the bouquet is soft and rich with good tannic structure, well balanced and a great finish. Available in Half Bottles.
