Il Podere
PERTICAIA, the word that in archaic Umbrian language means “plow”, the tool that probably more than any other represents the synergy between man and agriculture, indicative of the profound bond between ours cellar with land
A territory, a grape, a wine.
Perticaia is born right here, in the heart of green Umbria, among hills cultivated with vineyard and olive trees, dotted with towers, villages and medieval castles. After the purchase of the land, began a substantial work of planting new vineyards and the construction of a modern cellar; all made in perfect balance with the surrounding environment and taking care to maintain the appearance of the old farms of the area.
Respectful of the teachings of the past, the farm now boasts than 30 hectares of vineyard
Of which more than half dwellings in Sagrantino and Trebbiano Spoletino, in addition to one and a half hectare of olive grove.
“Vigna delle Querce” is delimited by centuries-old oaks preserved after the transformation of the land, once used as arable land.
“Vigna attone” runs along the homonymous stream.
“Vigna montioni” got its name from the family of the old owners.
The hilly land is placed in a slight slope, at an altitude between 320 and 350 m a.s.l., exposed mainly to south, south-west. As per tradition, after the harvest, which takes place manually, in the cellar each productive passage is aimed to enhance what the season and the territory are able to express in the fruit.
Today perticaia is an organic farm model for the territory:
At Perticaia, we craft wines that are a testament to the region’s essence, using local grape varieties as Sagrantino and Trebbiano Spoletino carefully cultivated on our estate. We seek to preserve the authenticity and personality of this exceptional place.
Our winemaking process is a symphony of art and science, carefully orchestrating each step to amplify the fruit’s natural expression shaped by the seasons and the land. The result is wines of great expressivity and elegance, encapsulating the very spirit of Umbria..
