In the heart of Umbria, caressed by the soft breezes of lake Trasimeno, there is a haven where nature and good taste culture merge in full harmony. It’s Pucciarella Farm there everything speaks language of nature: its happy exposure, the composition of the soil, mostly originated from the fragmenta of marl, the climate particularly suitable for growing vine and olive. The result is a high quality oenological and oil production.

The vineyards of Pucciarella Farm (58 hectares), situated at an average altitude of 300 metres above sea level, are registered in the roll of "Colli del Trasimeno DOC". Since the early 1990’s most of the old vineyards have been carefully and gradually substituted with new ones enjoying proper plant density 5000 stocks a hectare and fine varieties, able to satisfy the consumers more and more exigent taste. The soil mostly soft and rich in skeleton and stones of medium size is particularly fit for the production of quality grapes destined for superior quality wines. All the vineyards have been equipped in the last few years with drop irrigation system plants in order to lessen the negative affect caused by the more and more frequent dry summers. The combination of the factor such as altitude, position, the characteristic of the terrain and the low yield of every vine allow to get the best bouquet giving the wines a special character of great elegance.
