Anecdotes

One of Umbria’s oldest native varietals, usually blended with Trebbiano. When vinified on its own, it is a pleasant, not overpowering wine; the viticultural techniques and microclimate which we have dedicated to it have brought out its full character.
The stylized motif on the label is inspired by the four-lobed 14th-century lozenges that decorate the façade of the Perugia Cathedral: a balance of forms that interprets not only history and elegance but modernism as well.
