About the Winemaker

Lungarotti

A family in Umbria, Italy, with a love for their land that runs generations deep. That's the Lungarottis! Back in the 50s, Giorgio Lungarotti saw magic in Umbrian grapes, even when everyone else looked to Tuscany. He wasn't afraid to try new things, blending tradition with modern touches to create truly special wines. Today, his daughters and wife carry the torch, making wines that sing of Umbria's unique character. It's not just about the grapes (though they use Sangiovese in a whole new way here!), it's about respecting the land and sharing its story. They even have these amazing museums where you can learn all about Umbria's deep connection to wine and olive oil. Lungarotti isn't just a winery, it's a family sharing their passion for a place they love, one sip and one story at a time.

The Region

Umbria, Italy

Natural wine production in Umbria, Italy, is a celebration of the region's ancient winemaking traditions and its stunning natural beauty. Nestled in the heart of Italy, Umbria is characterized by rolling hills, fertile valleys, and historic hilltop towns. Here, native grape varieties such as Sangiovese, Sagrantino, and Grechetto thrive in the region's diverse microclimates, producing wines of exceptional quality and character. Natural winemakers in Umbria are deeply rooted in the land, practicing organic and biodynamic farming methods to nurture healthy vineyards and preserve the region's biodiversity. In the cellar, they employ minimalist techniques, favoring spontaneous fermentation with native yeasts and minimal sulfur usage to allow the true expression of the grapes to shine through. The resulting wines are vibrant, expressive, and full of personality, with a sense of place that reflects the unique terroir of Umbria. Whether enjoyed with hearty Umbrian cuisine or savored on their own, natural wines from this enchanting region offer a taste of Italy's winemaking heritage and the promise of discovery with every sip.
