The Pomario Estate, owned by Counts Spalletti Trivelli, is located in the province of Perugia in the municipality of Piegaro near Monteleone di Orvieto, in the border area between Tuscany and two important Umbrian areas: the Orvieto hills and Lake Trasimeno. On this border 'crest', 500 metres above sea level, the characteristic soils of the Orvieto area combine with the particular climate of the high hills of Lake Trasimeno, where the tramontana wind dominates in winter and the lake mitigates the summer heat. Pomario consists of 2 hillocks totalling 230 hectares, very bright and isolated from the rest of the territory by a thick wood that surrounds it and slopes down towards the valley floor to the Nestore river, a tributary of the Tiber. The structure of the soil, which is rich in skeleton but with a loose silt-clay structure, the continuous light, and the presence of water sources, are the fundamental elements that have made Pomario a place of choice for the establishment of agricultural settlements since ancient times. The presence of an old farmhouse structure dating back to the early 17th century, centuries-old olive trees and an old vineyard bear witness to this. Giangiacomo and Susanna Spalletti Trivelli, having realised the potential of this uncontaminated and exceptionally rare 'agro-ecosystem', decided to purchase Pomario and manage it in harmony with the environment, following the dictates of Organic Farming and maintaining the balance. The olive grove and vineyard, although abandoned for a few years, were still in excellent condition and in perfect balance with the environment. They were thus recovered and restored together with the ruins of the old farmhouse. Over the years, new vineyards and olive groves have been planted.
