The best wineries in Montefalco.
It is one of the oldest companies in the area of Montefalco. The name Scacciadiavoli comes from the name of an ancient village, which lies in close proximity of the company, where an exorcist (Scacciadiavoli) lived.
The winery was built in the second half of the nineteenth century and has been restored recently, rational and equipped with modern facilities. In the middle of the twentieth century, the grandfather of the current owners, Amilcare Zuccari, acquired the property.
The size of the company is of 130 hectares of surface, 35 out of which are invested in vine–growing, and the current production is of about 200,000 bottles, that will rise to about 250,000 when all the vineyards are in production.
The wines are typical of the area: Montefalco Sagrantino DOCG, dry and raisin versions, Montefalco Rosso DOC and Grechetto dell&rsquo,Umbria I.G.T. .
The conversion and development of the wine–growing area, now complete, includes the construction of the vineyards with at least 5,000 plants per hectare, targeted at achieving the best quality standards in the production of Montefalco Sagrantino, Montefalco Rosso and Grechetto dell’Umbria.
For some time, Spumante Brut Metodo Classico from Sagrantino grapes has been produced, too.
The Pambuffetti brothers are confident that the potential of the soil and the microclimate of the Scacciadiavoli company is enable to reach, thanks to the collaboration of experienced agronomists and winemakers, the pursuited results.
Thruster of that belief is the motto “Sola Fides” (great confidence) imprinted on the emblem that is on the front of the winery and on labels.
Azienda Val di Maggio was founded in 1971, when the successful textile entrepreneur Arnaldo Caprai bought the estate with the intent to cultivate and enhance the native variety of Sagrantino. The winery is located in Montefalco, in the heart of Umbria, and today has achieved an extension of 150 hectares belonging to the areas of the Montefalco DOCG and the Colli Martani DOC. The continental climate of its surroundings, with warm summers that tend to be dry and cold winters with sporadic snow, favors an excellent cultivation of varieties of grapes such as Sagrantino, Sangiovese, Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon for the red wines and Grechetto, Sauvignon and Chardonnay for the White wines.
Tradition and innovation are the key words of this company, that, believing in the potential of this rich territory, work through a continuous experimentation, both in the field of agronomy and winemaking, to produce wines of great quality.
The Tabarrini family has been growing its vineyards with love and has been producing wines in Montefalco, in Turrita locality, for four generations. Only at the end of the 90s, thanks to the intuition and the enthusiasm of Giampaolo Tabarrini, the company changes pace, deciding to bottle wines and to make the most of years of work. A little later, the new winery was founded, surrounded by hills and vineyards, shaping a charming and typical Umbrian landscape where man and nature come together. But it is from love for the land that great wines come. Of the 22 hectares of the estate, 11 are those cultivated with vineyard. Here, Sagrantino, that in Montefalco finds its raison d’être, has a central role, irreplaceable and fascinating. The Tabarrini family treats it with respect and pride, like the other properties of grapes, which are the only ones to be turned into wine. From the grapes to the bottle. And this is the true philosophy of a family that follows in first person, with great care and passion, every single step of its creatures.
It was a trip in the early 90s that excited and convinced Mr. Guardigli, before anyone else was thinking about it, of the extraordinary potential of that territory and of its princely vine: Sagrantino. “A territory, a grape, a wine”.
It's natural that right here, it was decided to give life to Perticaia - at the center of natural Umbria, among the hills cultivated with olive groves and vineyards, surrounded by medieval towers, villages and castles. After having bout the lands, he began a substantial work of planting new vineyards and the construction of a modern cantina, in perfect balance with the surrounding environment, and being sure to maintain the appearance of the old farms in the area.
The company boasts today of nearly 15 hectares of vineyards, of which more than 7 are of the Sagrantino grape variety, 4 of Sangiovese, 2 of Colorino and 2 of Trebbiano Spoletino, with 1 hectare of Grechetto, in addition to more than 250 olive trees: the lands are slightly sloped, and are 320-350 meters above sea level, and are mainly facing south, south-west.
Settimio Spacchetti established the farm in 1935 and today it is run by his sons Lamberto and Eliseo. It covers 19 hectares, 8 hectares of sagrantino and other grapes and 9 hectares of olive groves. The farm lies 400 metres above sea level. In Colle Ciocco's cellar, the grapes become wine: dry and sweet versions of "Sagrantino", "Montefalco Red", the white "Clarignano" and white "Tempestivo".
The Gustavo Tiburzi winery (farm) is situated in Montefalco, just three kilometres away from the town center in a strategic location for the food and wine tourism in Umbria. The vineyards are situated at about 450 m on sea level and since 2004 they have covered a surface of about 8,00 ha. Their planting density has over 6.000 vines per hectar and they are placed in a harmonious way in the DOC area, in order to catch all the feaseble climates and the countless shades of these amazing lands. All the varieties we emplant are red-barry.
