Here’s a 50-50 Montepulciano and Sangiovese blend that genuinely reflects the territory it comes from: Aromas of wet earth, blackberry, leather, spice and red beets are woven tightly together. Well-built and firm, the wine shows good persistency on the finish and can stand up to stewed meats or aged cheeses.

This 50-50 blend of Montepulciano and Sangiovese is fresh like sorbet but also sweet like a lollipop. Open red fruit greets you, followed by candied cherry and raspberry flavors. Zesty but a little sugary on the finish.

After a couple of tough vintages, this Verdicchio is back in form in 2004. Apple, melon, almond and vanilla work the nose, followed by a balanced but acidic palate pushing cider and orange peel. Finishes a touch pithy, with cleansing sharpness.

This 50-50 blend of Montepulciano and Sangiovese shows some Middle Eastern spice aromas as well as a leafy side that conjures aromas of lettuce and spinach. Fruity enough, with cherry, red licorice candy and carob on the palate. Gets better as it opens; drink earlier rather than later. Imported by Empson (USA) Ltd.

Young and simple, with basic mineral and citrus notes. The taste profile is tangy, with good but pedestrian pineapple and orange flavors. The finish is long and solid, but again, pedestrian.

Aged two years in oak, this is a Verdicchio that will make you re-examine your perception of this grape. Intense nose of complex, layered apricot compote and spice. Rich and full. An ’88 (no longer available) was even more complex on the nose but just beginning to dry out a bit on the palate.

Moderately intense apricot nose. Quite full in the mouth, with intriguing spice notes and quenching acidity.

While it seems a bit mute and distant at first, time opens it, allowing clean, refined citrus and vanilla flavors to pour forth. This is a reserved riserva, a wine that charms but doesn’t overwhelm. It’s focused and dishes light but refreshing lemon-lime and mineral.
