Leonardo Bussoletti Viticoltore in Narni

The winery is located in the municipality of Narni (province of Terni) in the south of the Italian region of Umbria. It was founded in 2008 by Leonardo Bussoletti. He is particularly concerned with the Ciliegiolo variety and is also president of the "Associazione Produttori Ciliegiolo di Narni". The selection of autochthonous varieties was made on the basis of analyses and laboratory tests. The vineyards cover nine hectares of vines planted with the varieties Ciliegiolo, Grechetto di Orvieto, Grechetto di Todi (Pignoletto) and Trebbiano Spoletino. From the beginning, certified organic farming was practised according to the guidelines of the Suolo e Salute association.

The product range includes several IGT wines, which are vinified according to variety and terroir.
