Highlights
In a unique territory you can admire beautiful landscapes, the route winds through ancient villages and places full of history. The stops in a cellar of ancient origins and in an oil mill where oils are still produced using artisanal methods make this experience unique. After the visit to the underground cellars of the Salviano Castle, we will taste the noble wines and local products in an ancient, noble, medieval environment. The tasting of extra virgin olive oils on typical bruschetta accompanied by olive and truffle pâté is truly particular, original and surprising. Thus we understand how many varieties of oils exist, their characteristics, combinations, blends or monocultures, suitable for different palates, combinations and tastes.

About Orvieto
Orvieto is a hill town on a cliff of volcanic rock in Umbria, with a mosaic-fronted Gothic cathedral, underground caves and a long winemaking tradition.
Orvieto stands on a flat-topped plug of volcanic tuff, with sheer cliffs around it, above the Paglia valley in southern Umbria. Its cathedral, begun in 1290, has a Gothic façade of gold mosaics and spires, and inside the San Brizio chapel Luca Signorelli painted his vast Last Judgment around the turn of the sixteenth century. The Torre del Moro, a clock tower in the old streets, gives a long view across the roofs.
Top-ranked sights in Orvieto: Orvieto Cathedral (Duomo di Orvieto), St. Patrick’s Well (Pozzo di San Patrizio), Pozzo della Cava.
