2. Immersed in the green heart of Italy, this winery is a jewel of tradition and innovation. Here, we bring to life wines that celebrate the land from which they originate. The wine estate was established by selecting and acquiring some of the best vineyards that once belonged to an important winemaking family in Montefalco. The uniqueness of the territory and its terroir, combined with environmentally respectful cultivation practices and rigorous hand harvesting, contribute to the company’s goal of achieving exceptional grape quality and, consequently, outstanding wines. Respect for nature begins with tending the vines according to rigorous organic viticulture principles. This commitment extends through vinification and refinement in the cellar, all the way to packaging. Their approach to winemaking, combined with the application of state-of-the-art technologies, ensures the quality, longevity, and naturalness of the produced wines, enhancing their individual characteristics.

3. Over the last 135 years, generations of winemakers have poured energy and passion into this land, leaving a lasting mark on the territory. Montefalco and Sagrantino have become part of the DNA of this Winery. Founded in 1884, the winery (from scacciare – to banish, and diavoli – devils) takes its name from an exorcist who lived in a town on the borders of the property and used the wine for his rituals. the winery never stopped its production since 1884, the year 2000 marked the beginning of extensive renovations undertaken without altering the original building. These renovations preserved all the historical architectural structures while introducing new technologies and modern machinery.

About Florence

Florence, the cradle of the Renaissance, gathers masterpieces of art and architecture into a compact city of stone streets beside the Arno.

The Duomo, with Brunelleschi's great red-brick dome, Giotto's bell tower and the Baptistery's gilded doors, marks the centre of town. A few streets away, Piazza della Signoria and the Palazzo Vecchio face a loggia full of sculpture, and the Uffizi Gallery holds Botticelli, Leonardo and Raphael. Michelangelo's David stands in the Galleria dell'Accademia.

Top-ranked sights in Florence: Piazza della Signoria, Uffizi Galleries (Gallerie degli Uffizi), Florence Duomo (Cattedrale di Santa Maria del Fiore).
