Montefalco

Montefalco is a medieval hilltop town in central Umbria known as the 'balcony of Umbria' for its panoramic views over the valley. The town is most famous for producing Sagrantino di Montefalco, one of Italy's most powerful and distinctive red wines made from the indigenous Sagrantino grape. Historic wine cellars line the medieval streets, offering tastings in atmospheric settings. Beyond wine, Montefalco preserves beautiful frescoes in its churches and maintains traditional crafts. The combination of art, wine, and views makes it a highlight of Umbrian wine country.
