    Umbria wine

    When we think of Italy's famous wine regions, names like Tuscany and Piemonte often come to mind first. But Umbria, the green heart of Italy, is quietly emerging as a destination for wine enthusiasts. Here, some of Italy's most enchanting and characterful wines are made. Umbria, where Grechetto is well-known, is also home to many other beautiful wines. Grechetto wines are fresh and aromatic, with notes of white flowers, peach, and citrus. They are the perfect choice for a refreshing summer afternoon.

    The History of Umbria

    Umbria, located in the heart of Italy, is a region often overshadowed by its famous neighbor, Tuscany. Yet, Umbria has a long winemaking history that dates back to the Etruscan and Roman times. The region features a landscape of rolling hills, fertile valleys, and countless vineyards, making it an ideal place for wine production. Like many other regions in Italy, Umbria has experienced various influences over the centuries, including from the Romans, Lombards, and Papal States. These diverse cultural influences have contributed to the development of Umbria's wine culture.

    Famous Wines from Umbria

    Umbria is known for its distinctive wines, both red and white. Sagrantino is a native grape variety used to produce Sagrantino di Montefalco. This red wine is deep and powerful, with intense aromas of blackberries, plums, and spicy notes. Sagrantino di Montefalco is among the most tannic wines in the world and has excellent aging potential. Additionally, Orvieto is a famous white wine produced in the city of Orvieto and the surrounding hills. This white wine is refreshing and has notes of citrus, green apple, and flowers. Orvieto is an excellent choice for white wine lovers. Torgiano Rosso Riserva is another notable red wine from Umbria.
