The Award-Winning Umani Ronchi Wines in the new 2025 guides
The release of the 2025 wine guides coincides with the first scores and reviews from national and international wine critics.
Here is the annual review of our wines, as prompt as ever!
Historical 2019, in its second vintage, has been awarded the "Tre Bicchieri" from Gambero Rosso for the second consecutive year in the Vini d'Italia 2025 guide.
Slow Wine has also called it "a masterpiece," awarding it the title of TOP WINE while also renewing the Bottiglia award to our winery in recognition of the outstanding quality and stylistic evolution of our wines.
Daniele Cernilli named Historical 2019 the "Best Verdicchio of the Year," giving it a score of 96/100 and the Faccino Doctor Wine accolade in the Essential Guide to Italian Wines 2025.
A new honour for our Verdicchio dei Castelli di Jesi DOC, released five years after its harvest, comes from Civiltà del Bere: Oro (Gold) 2024 at The Italian Wine Competition and the title of "Best Verdicchio dei Castelli di Jesi DOC—Ambassador of the Territory."
James Suckling makes a very accurate reading of the project behind Historical:
"Umani Ronchi with its historical selection of verdicchio raised the bar for italian white wines built to age. The grapes are sourced from old vines and aged for four years. This is a wake-up call not just for Verdicchio, but for all producers of italy's great whites."
Remaining in the Castelli di Jesi area, the Vecchie Vigne 2022 has also won Oro 2024 at The Italian Wine Competition of Civiltà del Bere and earned 94 points from Falstaff Wine Guide, while Plenio 2022, the iconic Verdicchio Riserva from the Cupramontana hills, achieved 93 points from James Suckling and the top award of "Cinque Grappoli" from Bibenda.
The Conero Riserva Campo San Giorgio 2020 received 92 points from James Suckling and a place among the top 300 wines awarded with the Corona distinction by Vini Buoni d’Italia Touring Club. To complete the picture, this Conero Cru has also received Oro 2024 from The Italian Wine Competition by Civiltà del Bere and 95 points from the Falstaff Wine Guide 2025.
