Montemelino - Organic Biodynamic wines from Umbria
Thanks to the good exposure of the vineyards, the mild climate of Lake Trasimeno and the passion of the family, the farm has been producing excellent wines for over 50 years.
The essence of Italy
Montemelino is a small organic farm on the shores of Trasimeno lake: a land that has been cultivated with vines and olive trees since the time of the Etruscans (500 BCE).
The special microclimate offered by the lake, surrounded by rolling hills, has favoured quality productions: the DOC region is characterized by Sangiovese, Ciliegiolo and Gamay del Trasimeno for red wines, Trebbiano and Grechetto for white wine.
Wine and Olive since 1961
From its inception in 1961, Montemelino has been a family affair, where the winery sits at the heart of a picturesque Villa. Each bottle of wine and extra virgin olive oil is crafted with devotion in the old cellar that occupies the ground floor of the family home.
They are fortunate to be located in places of rare beauty on the border between Umbria and Tuscany in a landscape of small villages and tranquility, also offering sustainable accommodation for those who want to experience an idyllic wine + nature experience
