VISIT AND TASTING – MONTEFALCO ESTATE

We look forward to welcoming you for guided winery tours and tastings by appointment, so you can discover our wines, olive oils and specialities.

The winery tour is an all-around experience that begins in the vineyards, continuing in the cellars where you can appreciate the vinification process using the most modern technology, the fascination of wooden casks and barriques, the villa.

Following the tour – which takes about 30 minutes – we can taste the wines together. The tasting is always accompanied by Umbrian bread and Lungarotti extra virgin olive oil.

The guided tours are for single guests or groups, experts or novices, winelovers or wine experts, students and families. The tasting room seats up to 60. Tours are held in Italian, English. Upon request, other languages are also available.
