Madrevite
About us
Madrevite began in the area around Castiglione del Lago, in the hills surrounding Trasimeno Lake and Lake Chiusi between Umbria and Tuscany. Three generations of wine producers, who have handed down the strong, constant bond between man and nature.
Madrevite was founded in 2003, when Nicola began to restore the family business and decided to replant part of his grandfather Zino’s old vineyards, dating back to 1978. That was the beginning of his new project.
“My cultural roots are riveted to the land: I have always been a winegrower. My family’s tradition in wine tells a timeless story of wisdom, steadfastness, collaboration, meticulousness and trust (because the harvest doesn’t always come up to expectations and the farmer is well aware of that). I wanted to face the new millennium by writing another chapter in this story to treasure the store of knowledge handed down to me.”
We are farmers as a result of experience, dedication and a mission.
60 hectares that extend over three different hills, of which 11 hectares of vineyards, 5 of olive groves, small parts of the forest and the rest of arable land

Our wines
Madrevite
A Madrevite is an ancient tool the Umbrian wine producers of the past used in the wine cellars to fasten the spigot to the barrels full of wine. It symbolises the bond between the past and the traditions which, together with modern agronomic and wine cellar practices, is the true essence of our wine production.
Madrevite: high quality Umbrian wines between Umbria and Tuscany
The hills of Lake Trasimeno
Madrevite is a winery located in the heart of Umbria, right on the border with Tuscany, on the western shore of Lake Trasimeno. This hilly territory, which extends from Cortona to Chiusi, is characterized by a unique microclimate, influenced by the presence of three lakes: Trasimeno, Chiusi and Montepulciano.
The perfect balance between mild climate, mineral rich soil and gentle hills creates an ideal terroir for the production of authentic and high quality Umbrian wines.
Madrevite enhances local wine traditions with sustainable cultivation methods, producing wines that express the identity of the territory.
In addition to wine, the Trasimeno Valley is renowned for the production of Extra Virgin Olive oil, cereals and lake fish, essential elements of an authentic food and wine offer.
