The 2009 Colli Maceratesi Ribona (Maceratino) is a beautifully, textured white layered with white stone fruit, flowers, spices, peaches, almonds and ash. A textured, caressing finish rounds things out nicely. Anticipated maturity: 2011-2014.
These are the first wines I have tasted from Fontezoppa. Quality is inconsistent throughout the range but the best wines merit attention.
