Madrevite

We are farmers by experience, dedication and mission. The company has been handed down for three generations and, like almost all the peasant properties of the past, it was born as a subsistence farming. For this reason it incorporates not only vineyards, but also olive trees and land for the production of cereals and legumes.

Today it consists of about 60 hectares – 12 of which are vineyards – which extend over three different hills and woods on the border between Umbria and Tuscany; it is the territory where I was born and that I want to continue to enhance.

This is why the farm is currently in organic conversion: because to be organic means to make an act of love, it means to believe in an ethical and sustainable approach, for us and for those who will come after us.

Umbria

With neighbours in Marche, Tuscany and Latium, Umbria’s rolling hills are well suited to viticulture. Although its output is less than a third of that of Tuscany, the region is gaining a reputation for unique modern wines at a fraction of the price of its celebrated neighbour. One of Umbria’s most famous exports is Orvieto, an appellation that has long pleased consumers in both its traditional abboccato style and as a modern dry wine. The golden, off-dry abboccato and amabile styles have recently been rediscovered as dessert wines. Although the local Procanico often dominates the blend, various grape varieties are permitted, including Malvasia and Grechetto.
