The Etruscan-Roman wine route

An itinerary of research and experimentation in a land generous in ancient knowledge and flavours, it recommended to all whom love slow experiences and ventures outside the usual circuits.

The Etruscan-Roman Wine Route intersepts the province of Terni in the lands that once belonged to the Etruscans and Romans.

Amidst cities of art, typical Umbrian skylines, resides a route to discover an area rich in history, culture and prestigious wineries offering Umbria's D.O.C. and I.G.T. wines.

In terms of accessibility, starting from the A1 highway exit at Orte, in the immediate vicinity, the first stop is in San Liberato di Narni at the Castello delle Regine Winery (www.castellodelleregine.com).

Another stop, heading towards Amelia, is at the winery of the same name: Colli Amerini Winery (www.colliamerini.it) and Zanchi Winery (www.cantinezanchi.it).

In Narni, a medieval town with picturesque streets, there is the Ruffo della Scaletta Winery (tel. 0744/15227, email: ruruffo@tin.it).

In Stroncone, a medieval village, take a break at La Palazzola Winery (tel. 0744/609091).

Last but not least, Sangemini, a medieval village and a slow town where you can visit Azienda Agraria Ponteggia (www.agrariaponteggia.it).
