More informations about the region of Umbria
DOC of northern Umbria (province of Perugia, upper Tiber valley towards Tuscany), hilly clay-calcareous terroirs. Sangiovese (≥50%) is the flagship red — lively and fruity with notes of cherry, raspberry, red fruits, sweet spices and a refined floral-balsamic character, round tannins and taut acidity (also fresh rosé). Trebbiano Toscano (≥50%) and indigenous Grechetto as flagship whites — harmonious with white fruits, citrus and a fresh mineral touch. Authentic Umbrian Tiber identity.
