For fifty years now, the Zanchi family has been crafting high-quality wine in Amelia, in the Umbria region, within a strikingly-beautiful complex of hills that are crowned by the ancient estate residence and the wine-making facility. The surface of the estate is totally dedicated to vineyards and olive groves, all cultivated in accord with the principles of organic agriculture, which mandate low environmental-impact practices and full respect for biodiversity. Three generations now of the family have dedicated themselves to continuous research into the local growing area, identifying the most-suitable ancient clones and those classic to Umbria. Over the years they have naturally crafted wines that are most representative of their local area and its traditions. The Zanchi winery is located in one of the most scenic and beloved landscapes in all of Umbria, on the route of the Strada dei vini Etrusco Romana, the Roman-Etruscan Wine Road. It lies just a couple steps from Amelia.

Reviewed By Alastair796 - Stockport, United Kingdom
This museum has many Roman artefacts and a lot of stone retrieved from the Roman town that became modern Amelia but the principal exhibit is a life size bronze statue of Germanicus. This lay buried (and therefore squashed) until 1963 but sufficiently intact to allow reconstrucion of virtually the whole thing. Those pieces that won't fit are displayed separately. How it has escaped being hauled off to at least a provinvial if not national museum seems incredible - it really has to be seen to be believed. A short film (available in English) explains the full history, both of the man and the statue. We were in the museum for well over an hour and saw no other visitors - early September so outside school holidays but this does deserve to be better known.

Reviewed By SambaMaster - Ascoli Piceno, Italy
The Romans were amazing engineers, even more impressive when you realize they did everything with the crudest of tools (by modern standards). They were very smart about creating water storage for their towns, especially in areas that were not gifted with a natural water source. So, here they dug enormous underground chambers in order to collect and store rainwater. These rooms are amazing! Do stop here if you are in Amelia...well worth the reasonable ticket price...Wow!!!!
