Agricola Romanelli 1 Items

On the hills of Montefalco, in the heart of Umbria, in an extraordinary area surrounded by vineyards and olive groves, the Romanelli family has cared for and preserved what nature has generously provided for three generations. The family wishes their wines to be the expression of the unique gifts that the land, the vines, the people and the microclimates that interact in the ecosystem bring together every day in the fields. They believe that true quality is obtained in the country from a healthy, balanced vines that yield perfectly ripened, whole grapes. Organic fertilizer, grass cover between the rows, correct management of the land and foliage, direct exposure of the grapes to the sun and low yields per hectare are some of the agricultural practices that are undertaken day after day to reach their objectives. All these actions are in harmony with the philosophy of the Romanelli Nature project, which rejects chemical fertilizers, insecticides, and herbicides and strives to maintain the balance of the ecosystem with the installation of bird boxes. This approach gave birth to two projects on the estate: Romanelli Nature and Romanelli Tourism, both testimony to the farming philosophy the family follows. Romanelli Nature is an eco-sustainability project developed to help support biodiversity and to care for the environment through installations of bird boxes throughout the vineyards. Romanelli Tourism is a ‘wine-tourism’ program, linked to the farm’s production and related to the idea of eco-tourism.
