Production area

The production area of the D.O.C. "Colli del Trasimeno" or "Trasimeno" includes the total territory of Castiglione del Lago, Magione, Paciano, Panicale, Passignano sul Trasimeno and Tuoro sul Trasimeno.
It also includes Cittaà della Pieve, Corciano, Perugia and Piegaro.
We are around the shores of Lake Trasimeno, from which the DOC takes its name, in the province of Perugia.
It is therefore all that part of territory in ancient Umbrian established by the Etruscans. It is to them that can be traced back looking for the origins of cultivation of the vine in this area.
The conformation of the hills, the small flat surface and especially the presence of Lake characterize a micro-climate that makes this area particularly suited to the cultivation of the vine and olives.
