ROMANELLI WINERY

It was 1978 when Amedeo and Costantino Romanelli, father and son, decided to devote themselves full time to agriculture, setting up a real farm in San Clemente di Montefalco, in the heart of Umbria.

The production of wine and oil is accompanied by that of cereals, used entirely for feeding livestock. Next to them are their respective wives Anna Maria and Anna Rita, who play an absolutely decisive role in the life of the company and the family, and their children Devis and Fabio, who grew up on the estate in close contact with nature. Today the three generations live and work with passion within the company, in an extraordinary area surrounded by vineyards and olive trees, preserving what Nature has given so generously. Over the years, the typical productions of excellence such as oil and wine have acquired an increasingly important role, becoming their focal points. "The wine and oil we produce testify to the excellence of the unique and unrepeatable qualities of the soils, plants, microclimates that interact in our ecosystem. This is why we practice agriculture that is attentive to the needs of the territory and to maintaining the balance that characterizes our environment. Our products express our history, our territory and our work ".
