Sant'Andrea d’Agliano (PR) - UMBRIA

Just a few minutes from Perugia, in the Umbrian countryside, Sara Gallina tends her family vineyards following organic principles. After studying oenology in Milan, and working in France, she returned to her hometown with a clear view of how to best take care of the vineyards, and with an integral approach to winemaking. No chemicals are used in the fields or in the cellar.

Alongside Sara, her brother Filippo looks after the vines, which were planted by their grandfather mostly in the 1970s, and sit on limestone, sand and clay soils. They work with Grechetto, Montepulciano, Sangiovese and some international varieties, including Pinot Grigio and Cabernet Sauvignon.
