Madrevite is a winery located in the heart of Umbria, on the border with Tuscany, on the western shore of Lake Trasimeno. This hilly territory, stretching from Cortona to Chiusi, is characterised by a unique microclimate, influenced by the presence of three lakes: Trasimeno, Chiusi and Montepulciano.The perfect balance of mild climate, mineral-rich soil and gentle hills creates an ideal terroir for the production of authentic, quality Umbrian wines.Madrevite enhances local wine-making traditions with sustainable cultivation methods, producing identity wines that best express 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. Discover an immersive experience amidst vineyards, tastings and sensory trails in an unspoilt natural environment, perfect for lovers of food and wine tourism in Umbria.

Between Umbria and Tuscany, in the hills that embrace Lake Trasimeno and Lake Chiusi, in the municipality of Castiglione del Lago, Madrevite is born. Three generations of wine producers hand down the unchanging and profound bond between man and nature.Madrevite was born in 2003, when Nicola began restoring the family business and decided to replant part of his grandfather Zino's old vineyards, dating back to 1978. Thus his new project was born: 'My cultural roots are tenaciously clinging to the land: I have always been a vine grower.

In my family, the winegrowing tradition tells a timeless story that speaks of wisdom, constancy, cooperation, scrupulousness and trust (because the harvest does not always correspond to expectations, and a farmer knows this well). I, with the new millennium, wanted to write another chapter of this story, treasuring the wealth of knowledge that has been passed on to me.'We are farmers by experience, dedication and mission.

The visits begin with a walk through the vineyards and the centuries-old olive grove, where you will discover the history of our territory and the life cycle of the vine, from pruning to harvesting. The tour continues in the winery, with a visit to the fermentation and ageing rooms, to understand all the stages of the winemaking process. The experience culminates with a guided tasting of our wines, paired with typical Umbrian products of our own production.If you love wine, nature and good food, come and visit us: a unique sensory experience awaits you in the heart of Umbria.
