That price is not a misprint. As the new vintage comes in, I locked into an amazing price on the perfect spring wine. But unfortunately, with big press and such a small price tag, this one is destined to sell out in a day or two. An Editors’ Choice from Wine Enthusiast, along with rave reviews from Vinous and Wine Spectator and all for a wine that can be had today for less than $9/bottle. Hurry up on this one!
Umani Ronchi is starting to make a name for themselves amongst the Nicholas Wines faithful. There’s good reason for that. They make flat out delicious, every-day drinking wine, which stylistically pairs well with most kinds of cooking. These wines are ridiculously well-priced and consistently wow critics.
Eric Guido of Vinous went on a huge long rant about how much he loved Umani Ronchi, saying that although they manage more than 210 hectares of vines between Marche and Abruzzo, they still “manage to deliver one of the most balanced and quality-driven portfolios within the two regions.”
Today’s beauty is a Castello di Jesi Verdicchio from one of the most famous and historic Marche appellations. The Verdicchios here are absolutely zipped up, electric white wines that are so good, that legend even has it that the troops of the King of the Visigoths drank barrels of Verdicchio to maintain their strength before marching to sack Rome!
This one dazzles. Vinous called out the delicious tropical notes, “hints of papaya and young mango” and even called this knockout every day drinker, “weightier than anticipated”. Wine Enthusiast in their Editors’ Choice review called it “tangy and fresh”, while Wine Spectator took notice of the notes of “Asian pear and minerality”.

A large glass is necessary to capture the brilliant aromatics of Talmard’s Macon Uchizy. Aromas of ripe Meyer lemon, peach, honey and mint just blast from the glass upon pouring. The wine takes on weight with aeration, developing flavors of crisp green apple, juicy peach and lemon custard. The finish is long and fresh, so good with food. Roast some salmon, make sweet corn risotto, use it as an aperitif, it’s a great choice for a spring/summer-house white wine.
The newly released 2021 Domaine Laroche Chablis Saint Martin has some big shoes to fill as the last three vintages have earned 92-points or higher, but the early indications are that this is line with previous vintages if not even a little bit ahead at this stage. The problem is – there’s almost none to go around with much smaller yields. Still this is beautiful and crisp, with good focus, energy and depth. I get the signature green fruits on the nose, with some Asian pear, and a hint of jasmine blossom. There’s a beautiful mineral streak that highlights this one. It’s a fantastic White Burg for the price.
The Mâcon-Verzé from the iconic Domaine Leflaive is always world-class and one crazy good value. Drawn from nine special plots, and utilizing a combination of steel, cement and oak fermentation that leads to a wide array of flavor profiles. The new release is absolutely beaming with energy even in its youth. It boasts floral aromas, lemon-lime citrus notes and a minerality that shines throughout.
The 2020 vintage is textbook. Bright gold in color. Hints of minerality layered with citrus notes of lemon peel. Nervy, racy and lively. It’s going to be stunning with shellfish, seafood, cheese or just on its own.
