We visited this winery on our Gusto Wine Tour! This is a beautiful family run winery with excellent wines. They were very creative in coming up with unique art for their used wine barrels.We had lunch there which was superb! The staff was extremely helpful and accommodating. We are now enjoying a bottle of their le tese (Umbria Bianca) at home.

Wow! After you visit Paolo and his winery, you will leave feeling like family. They take such pride in their work and treat every guest with respect and great care. We visited Paolo just after quarantine ended in Italy. We arranged a tasting and lunch to take away. They organized the entire lunch and had it well packaged when we arrived. They also created a separate menu for a vegetarian couple in the group. We had such a wonderful experience that We will be back this fall (and hopefully many times after that) Everything from the home-cooked meal by his mother, the wine and the olive oil were fantastic and high quality. Thank you Paolo and family. A presto.

Truffle hunting in the beautiful Umbrian hills, an unforgettable culinary experience, a day spent in the company of colorful locals, a stroll through some stunning countryside... The Wild Foods Gastronomical Adventure is a piece of Italy you will never forget. You spend a day immersed in authentic traditional Italian company, culture and cuisine. You hunt truffles, cook truffles, eat truffles, as well as get to experience an amazing part of Italy far away from the usual tourist trails. You also experience some traditional 'wild' cuisine, maybe wild boar stew, sauteed hare, or roast guinea fowl. It's great for foodies and wine-lovers, or for anyone just wanting to immerse themselves in the landscape, people and culture of Umbria.

We visited this amazing church last Sunday. It was raining at the beginning and we had basically a private visit, just two of us, me and my husband. I’m not sure if it was due to weather... but I have a feeling that it’s not so crowded on a regular basis. The ladies at the desk were very nice. We purchased our tickets and went downstairs. Entrance is €7 euros per person but you can use these tickets to enter other museums & churches in the region that are a part of Umbria Terre Musei (they are valid for two weeks). The church is incredible!!! It has so many interesting and beautiful frescoes! We heard about this place during our visit of Arnaldo Caprai and we wanted to find the frescoes with Petrarca, Dante & Giotto that were used for the winery’s special Sagrantino (bottles’ labels portrayed those famous figures in modern interpretation of the local artist). Those images are located in the apse, which by itself is stunning, and done entirely by Gozzoli. There is another notable work in the church - beautiful fresco by Il Perugino. But the rest is all amazing and fascinating too. I’m a big fan of frescoes. We spent 40 minutes inside admiring all of this incredible art. The building was constructed in the 14th century, frescoes were done mainly in the 14-16th centuries. Some are badly ruined but it makes you feel the time and wonder how they looked before. Spectacular place that we deeply enjoyed visiting and highly recommend for everyone who comes to Montefalco.

Montefalco was recommended by our hosts in Spoleto as a good example of a restored walled town with adequate parking, great wine shops and cafes, and without the hassle of large tour groups. It turned out to be a perfect spot for quiet sightseeing with wonderful views across the region from the viewing area at the top of the town. Recommended.
