Description

Cantina Lungarotti's Torgiano Rubesco Riserva DOCG is one of the jewels in the crown of the winery, founded in the 1960s by owner Giorgio, now run with passion by his daughters Chiara and Teresa, together with his wife Maria Grazia. The nectar is produced in Umbria, in the Monticchio Vineyard, located on the Brufa hill. The territory has lacustrine origins and is characterised by sandy and clayey fringes.
