Mancius
Young, fruity and aromatic
A versatile and fruity red wine made from typical local varieties (Ciliegiolo, Sangiovese Grosso and Merlot). Many of the vines from which it is made, located at an altitude of about 340 meters, are about 80 years old and have an annual production of less than 40 quintals per hectare.
The wine, in order to preserve its fruitiness, does not undergo maturation in wood.

Our Olive Oil
Our olive groves flourish in clay-marl soils where over 500 trees belonging to nineteen native varieties have been carefully tended, many for generations.
We specialise in the prized Moraiolo variety, an ancient Umbrian cultivar that produces extraordinarily rich oils high in antioxidants, alongside the rare San Felice monovarietal oil known for its elegant almond and white flower notes.
Each harvest is done entirely by hand, and every drop of oil from our DOP-certified trees reflects both the exceptional terroir and our commitment to preserving these ancient varieties.
