About Us
The Farm covers 30 hectares of land, of which five are given over to mixed
crops, five to olive groves and twenty to vineyards, and lies in the
municipality of Bevagna on the hillsides of Arquata and Colcimino, an area
renowned since antiquity for the high quality of its oil and wine. Around the
year 50 Anno Domini, in fact, Pliny the Elder wrote the following about the
Itriola grape, typical of Bevagna, the ancient Mevania of the Umbrians, the
Etruscans and the Romans: "Itriola Umbriae Mevanatique Agro Peculiaris Est". -
1960 saw the start of the renovation works to the old convent of the Philippine
friars, which stands on ruins dating back to the Roman age and to the late
Renaissance, as well as the re-planting of the old vineyards and the planting
of new ones. Today the winery is equipped with all the latest technological
innovations and has selected vineyards of Grechetto and Sagrantino (native
species of vine), Barbera, Cabernet, Chardonnay, Merlot, Sangiovese and others.
It produces wine, grappa and extra-virgin olive oil, about 30% of which is
exported to Europe, the U.S.A., Canada and Japan.
