Romagna Sangiovese Modigliana, Mutiliana 'I Ronchi Sparsi' 2023
Red Wine from Italy - Emilia Romagna
Wine-critic turned winery-owner Giorgio Melandri was keen to explore Romagna's marl and sandstone foothills for production of elegant sangiovese and has built a reputation for modern, lifted, and very fine examples which appeal to pinot noir lovers. In May 2023, extensive flooding in Modigliana led to many landslides which swept away roads and made it impossible to reach the vineyards unless on foot. Production was more than halved and thus, instead of producing his usual three sangioveses with grapes from the individual valleys, the decision was taken to produce a single Modigliana from the very best fruit harvested. The result – I Ronchi Sparsi – is an incredibly characterful, refreshing red perfumed with wild strawberry, pomegranate, Alpine herbs and roses. Crisp with a tangy edge to the fruit, and finely detailed tannins, this is a triumph from adversity.

Mature, shaded ruby. Fully evolved, sweet Sangiovese with a bit more guts than many a Tuscan. Very flattering and a good wine for the table. JancisRobinson.com
