The company
Montemelino is an organic farm of about 60 hectares, located on the northern hills of Lake Trasimeno, between Umbria and Tuscany, around 300 metres above sea level, on a beautiful knoll overlooking the lake. The farm has been run, since 1961, by Margret with Guido and now by Sabina, his daughter, who carries on with Pier a work that the whole family has always been passionate about.
In addition to producing quality wine and oil, we have renovated the farmhouses to accommodate tourists and friends. Guido's creativity and style are everywhere in Montemelino and many of his wall paintings make each house unique.
The company has been run, since 1961, by Margret Etten Cantarelli and now by Sabina, her daughter, who carries on with Pier a work that the whole family has always been passionate about.
Productive process
We pay great attention to the environment in which we operate, through organic farming and environmentally friendly agricultural practices.In our winery we only make wine from grapes grown in our own vineyards.The vineyards are arranged in a "single body", i.e. contiguous to each other, and are located all around the house and the cellars.The training system is traditional espalier, pruned to "guyot" or "cordon spur" depending on the variety. Yields per hectare are around 50/60 quintals.
