Welcome to episode 1083, another installment of 'On The Road Edition', hosted by Stevie Kim. Today she is Montefalco Umbria, speaking with Giampaolo Tabarini, the newly elected President of the Montefalco Consortium.

Montefalco is a historic small hill town in Umbria, Italy, with a population of 5,581 in August 2017. It has been settled since pre-Roman times, and retains many of its historic buildings. From 1446 to 1861 it was part of the Papal States. Montefalco DOC is a regulated geographical area for its wine, the reds usually including the highly localized Sagrantino grape variety.

More about the Consortium:

The Consortium Tutela Vini Montefalco was founded in 1981 to coordinate the local companies and guarantee high production standards. The Consortium over the years has promoted, valorized and protected the wines belonging to the Montefalco Sagrantino DOCG, Montefalco DOC and Spoleto DOC appellations throughout the world.
