Umani Ronchi Cùmaro

Cùmaro is one of the most important wines in the story of Umani Ronchi, and it can also be numbered among the founding members of the family of fine wines from the Conero area. It was created in the mid-1980s to celebrate the Montepulciano varietal from 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 then, modern techniques of vinification and aging. 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”.
