Territory and wine style

The grapes come from Montecarotto, in the area of the Verdicchio Hills, from a plot of Old Vines located about 310 meters above sea level, on a slope facing east and characterized by deep, clayey, and cool soil. This context gives the wine balance, gustatory tension, and a marked saline imprint. Umani Ronchi's interpretation focuses on precision, longevity, and evolutionary capacity, while maintaining the personality of the grape variety and the recognizability of the territory.
