The Winery

The area surrounding Genius Loci is renowned for its prestigious vineyards. Our winery produces, from our very own vineyards on the property, four boutique wines.

OUR WINES

At Genius Loci we produce four wines:

  • Sagrantino DOCG
  • Rosso di Montefalco DOC
  • Sagrantino Passito
  • Grechetto IGT

Sagrantino DOCG

The Sagrantino DOCG certification is due to our being well-within the tiny restricted area to which it applies. It is a very full-bodied, complexly structured red wine, with a detectable tannic component (which has been successfully mitigated by the aging in French oak) with a persistent aroma of wild berries, of 100%  Sagrantino grapes.

Rosso di Montefalco DOC

The Rosso di Montefalco DOC is a blend, the result of Maurizio’s methodical experimentation over the years in an attempt to find the perfect blend of 65% Sangiovese, 20% Merlot and 15% Sagrantino.  While it is also a full-bodied, well-structured red wine, having only 15% Sagrantino grapes it is more mellow, less tannic.  It is a well-rounded table wine which pairs well with most foods.

Sagrantino Passito

The Sagrantino Passito is a meditation wine much like Port.  It is made of very select grapes of 100% Sagrantino which are air dried naturally for three full months (until they reach 31% sugar content) before beginning the fermentation process.  It is a sweet but not syrupy wine, aged for at least two years in bottle.  It is extremely well-loved and well-known in all of Italy.

Grechetto IGT

The Grechetto IGT is our signature white wine. It is a light, fruity wine that conjures images of summer, light meals on the terrace and relaxing in the summer breeze.
