This fine region of Umbria is renowned for its exquisite wines since the ancient Etruscans:  the highly advanced pre-Roman civilization that thrived in this region from the 8th century BCE to the 3rd-2nd centuries BCE.  The Etruscans introduced winemaking, vine grafting, and grape cultivation which grew into a flourishing trade. Primitive “wine cellars” were carved into the tuffaceous rock for their wine production which became part of the Etruscan viticulture history.

Your countryside journey will take you to the tranquil hilltop winery estate surrounded by rows of vineyards, olive orchards, and enthralling Umbrian and Tuscan landscapes. This remarkable winery is an ideal oasis far away from civilization and very close to nature.

Revel in a 1.5-hour visit at this winery where you will learn from the family of winemakers the traditional process of winemaking and sample a selection of 3 locally produced wines paired with locally sourced charcuterie and organic extra virgin olive oil.

At the conclusion of your winery visit, your driver will take you on a 30-minute drive along scenic windy country roads to Orvieto where you will enjoy free time for lunch and sightseeing.
