Castello di Montegiove has a history spanning many centuries. Wine and olive oil have been produced here since the very beginning. The Misciatelli Mocenigo Soranzo family has owned this castle, along with over 1,200 hectares of land, since the 17th century. In 2008, successor Lorenzo took over the estate and renovated the castle, including the cellar.
Montegiove belongs to the Orvieto wine region and produces one white wine, one rosé wine, and four red wines, plus a top-quality DOP olive oil. These products are now available at Umbriaweine. The wines feature grape varieties such as Sangiovese, Sagrantino, Merlot, and Cabernet Sauvignon, as well as Canaiolo Nero. These wines are dedicated to the ancestors who made all of this possible.
Today, the wine estate has approximately 9 hectares of vineyards that have been replanted over the past decades. In addition, there are hundreds of olive trees, some of which are more than 100 years old.
