Discovering the wine region of Ombrie

Umbria, in CentralItaly, is a region of lush hills, hilltop villages and iconic historic towns. The latter are exemplified by Orvieto and Assisi. At the very heart of the Italian peninsula, it is surrounded by Tuscany, Marche and Lazio. It is in fact the only Italian region without a coastline or international border.

Umbria, like Marche and Lazio, is best known for its white wine production. Despite changes in style over time, Orvieto DOC (based on the Trebbiano Grape) remains the region's most important appellation. It accounts for more than ten percent of Umbria's total wine production. Orvieto's styles can range from Dry (Secco) to semi-Sweet (Amabile) and sweet wines.
