Madrevite – Umbrian wines near Lake Trasimeno
Umbria is the Landlocked region in central Italy, often called “the green heart of Italy.”
Here, near the Tuscan border to the region in the northwest, you find Italy’s 4th Largest Lake, Lago Trasimeno.
You find the Colli del Trasimeno DOC in these hills near Lake Trasimeno. Water of any kind near vineyards moderates temperature, and this region has mild winters and warm summers with lake breezes.

We received a variety of wines from Madrevite, a winery tucked into this region. Nicola Chiucchiurlotto’s grandfather planted vineyards here beginning in 1978. His grandfather called his vineyard “Francese.”
