Cantina Le Cimate
About the Winery
Cantina Le Cimate, named for its unique location in Montefalco, Umbria, has a rich history rooted in the Bartoloni family's expertise in viticulture, which began in 1964. In 1992, the family acquired the land where the winery stands today. Driven by his grandfather's passion, Paolo, the owner, established a state-of-the-art winery in 2012 with the latest technology. The estate now boasts 23 hectares of vineyards, 33 hectares of olive groves, and 15 hectares of hazelnuts.
In 2010, the winery also invested in a modern tasting room, designed to accommodate up to 120 people for ceremonies and events, offering visitors a unique experience in the heart of Umbria.

Super experience
The wines were paired perfectly with what we had on the platter, all accompanied by a thorough explanation of everything we were drinking.
We couldn't have asked for a better experience.

Great venue and amazing personal story
Really worthy experience and wines
The only thing is that the place is located in an amazing place but the experience is all inside, and there are no windows that allow you to see outside. It would be a great upgrade to have the wine tasting outside, or to do a small walk arround the wine yards to enjoy the landscape.
Amazing

Wine and cured meats tasting
Splendid winery with the owner's big heart
The owner, Paolo, was very kind, you could feel so much passion for what he does, how he is continuing his family's tradition with a big heart.
We tasted delicious wines with appetizers that melt in your mouth, the kind you only eat in high-level places.
When our gift - 5 bottles of wine - runs out, we will definitely be back!
