Umani Ronchi...

The unique and recognizable style of Umani Ronchi wines comes from the Marche region, framed by glorious hills that meet the waters of the Adriatic Sea.

For many centuries the vine has flourished in this environment, favoured by long hours of sunshine followed by cool nights, and sea breezes that mitigate the colder winter months.

Indeed this region is well suited for viticulture: Marches have in themselves the environment for a prestigious viticulture, and Umani Ronchi has profited from their treasures: clavey soils of medium density for white wines, loose and calcareous for red wines.

With such a favourable climate and soil, the remaining factor that generates success is: our passion. Since the beginning they have pursued the principal aim of the highest quality production, and in more than 30 years they have refined this art.

Careful selection of the grapes on the plant, very low yields per hectare, continuous experimentations on the vineyard and in the cellar, strict laboratory controls.

All that, and more, contribute to the unique style of the wines.

Vigneto San Lorenzo Rosso Conero 2004

Bin No

EN2528

Size

1 x 75cl

Price

£10.50

Grape Varieties: 100% Montepulciano.

With its outstanding impact in terms of flavour and the enfolding warmth of its rounded tannins, it is a wine which is intended to express all the potential of the combination between its terroir and the Montepulciano varietal. These characteristics are augmented by the contribution from the oak lasks which are kept in the picturesque cave at Osimo, in which San Lorenzo is aged.

Brilliant ruby red colour with garnet tints. The nose is sweet, predominantly fruity, with typical notes of morello cherry. Rich and pulpy in the mouth, flavourful and pleasantly harmonious, with silky tannins. The long finish is austere and intensely fruity.

 

Montepulciano D'abruzzo Jorio 2004

Bin No

EN2168

Size

1 x 75cl

Price

£11.15

Grape Varieties: 100% Montepulciano.

Jorio was created in the mid-nineties to express the great potential of this varietal, in collaboration with fanatically dedicated Abruzzese winegrowers with vineyards in particularly favourable areas for its growth. The name of the wine is intended as a tribute to the great twentieth-century Abruzzese poet Gabriele D'Annunzio, who made his wild, provincial native soil into a “barbaric” novelty, exciting and transgressive, with which he stirred and won the public’s favour.

Here is D’Annunzio’s dedication to his pastoral tragedy The daughter of Jorio: “To the land of Abruzzi, to my mother, to my sisters, to my brother in exile, to my buried father, to all my dead, to all my people between the mountains and the sea, this song of ancient blood I consecrate".

Deep ruby red, recalls plums and red cherries on the nose, followed by balsamic and salty notes on a background of ripe liquorice. With eloquent and clean tannins in the mouth, it comes across as full and vigorous, with a long and intense finish.

 

Cumaro Rosso Conero 2004

Bin No

EN2618

Size

1 x 75cl

Price

£20.00

Grape Varieties: 100% Montepulciano.

Cumaro Rosso Conero was created in the mid eighties to celebrate the Montepulciano variety of vine, and an area close to the sea with highly calcareous soils, using methods based on very strict selection of grapes in the vineyard and what were, at least for then, modern techniques of vinification and ageing.

The name Cùmaro is a tribute to Mount Conero, komaros in Greek, which means ‘arbutus’: an evergreen shrub which grows freely in its woodlands. Since 2004 the wine has been entitled to the appellation DOCG (Guaranteed and Controlled Denomination of Origin) Conero Riserva.

Deep ruby red colour with garnet tints, presenting an intense bouquet, with the emergence at the start of fine ripe plum, blackcurrant and morello fruit, and a spiced finish of black pepper, vanilla and tobacco. Soft and enfolding in the mouth, with well-smoothed tannins and a pleasant chocolatey finish.

Grape Varieties: 100% Montepulciano.

 

Montepulciano D'abruzzo 2006

Bin No

1 x 75cl

Price

£6.95

Grape Varieties: 100% Montepulciano.

The Umani Ronchi version of Montepulciano d’Abruzzo is intended to be an interpretation of this vine which aims to exalt its varietal characteristics and its freshness, combining these qualities with just the right amount of charm and softness. The result is a very pleasant and drinkable wine which goes with many different kinds of dishes.

A young and immediately drinkable wine: ruby red colour with violet tints, delicate aromas of plum and morello cherry, robust and full-bodied in the mouth, slightly tannin-rich with a dry and flavourful finish.
