When in 1997 we purchased Castello di Corbara we immediately realised that Orvieto was an hidden jewel for red wines.
Adjacent to lake Corbara, on the east side of the winery, Sangiovese, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot grapes have found the perfect combination of soil and microclimate.
The Corbare Lake Doc was our first wine, blend of Sangiovese grapes, Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon.
