Montemelino - Organic Biodynamic wines from Umbria

Thanks to the good exposure of the vineyards, the mild climate of Lake Trasimeno and the passion of the family, the farm has been producing excellent wines for over 50 years. 

Montemelino: A quiet Umbrian icon

Perched above Lake Trasimeno, Montemelino is a small, family-run estate in Umbria making honest wines and extra virgin olive oil since 1961. With just a few hectares of vineyards and olive trees, the farm is a sanctuary for slow cultivation, native grapes, and traditional winemaking.

Native grapes, local identity

The estate focuses on traditional Umbrian and central Italian grapes like Grechetto, Trebbiano, and Sangiovese. These varieties thrive in Montemelino’s natural setting, producing wines that are rustic, pure, and deeply rooted in place—wines meant for the table, not the trophy shelf.

Wine and Olive since 1961

Montemelino was born from a passion for the land. Since the early '60s, the family has cultivated vineyards and olive groves side by side - always organically, always by hand. The same care is given to the wine and the oil, each a pure reflection of their shared terroir.

Terroir with a View

Montemelino’s vineyards overlook Lake Trasimeno, where the clay and sandy soils retain water and heat while staying well-aerated. The microclimate - tempered by the lake’s breeze - encourages slow ripening and subtle aromatics in both white and red varietals.
