28 Apr THE ROUTE OF WINERIES AND VINEYARDS
This loop itinerary allows you to cross an ancient agricultural landscape, always varied and surprising, where vineyards are still intersected by tree-lined avenues, centuries-old oaks, olive groves, and wooded areas. Sagrantino has been DOCG since 1992, but Pliny the Elder already celebrates a prized grape found in the Bevagna area, and the vineyards, harmoniously integrated with plots used for subsistence farming, have characterized the shape of this landscape for two thousand years.
Upon reservation, all of the wineries touched by the itinerary offer visit and tasting opportunities.
