Consorzio Tutela Vini Montefalco

Since 1981 the producers of Montefalco have come together in a Consortium of Protection, which has the task of coordinating the businesses in the area and to lead them in the pursuit of quality and enhancement of the wines of their territory.

It is of 2001 the "re–foundation" of this Consortium, necessary to respond to the new requirements of the current regulations. The need of this regulatory adjustment was seized upon to make a general check and reset the job.



The new Consortium boasts, in effect, a representativeness superior to 82%, as regards the certified production of Sagrantino di Montefalco and Montefalco Rosso: this confers to it an authoritativeness that no other structure can boast relatively to the area represented by it.

The social base is in effect largely expanded enjoying the presence of prestigious companies, renowed both in the area and therefore operating already for many years, and the result of investments of large groups or of producers of international fame, who have decided to make substantial investments in the most promising designation of the emerging Umbria region.



The objective of consolidating the notoriety gained by the wines of Montefalco (especially in recent years), through the constant improvement of the quality not only of Sagrantino, but of all the wines produced in the area, is shared with conviction not only by the "historical" producers of the area, but also by companies resulting from the most recent investments. This is the true strength of this territory and what the Consortium protects: a common awareness that only by continuing to grow qualitatively you can achieve satisfactory results for everyone.
