Boutique Organic Winery Visit & 6 Wine Tastings near Urbino
From vine to glass: a sensory journey through sustainable viticulture in the heart of the Montefeltro hills.
This organic winery tour near Urbino invites visitors into one of the Marche region's most thoughtfully managed wine estates, certified organic by CCPB since 1997. Set along the Foglia River within the Montefeltro countryside, the estate blends sustainable farming with authentic Italian winemaking tradition. The two-hour experience covers both vineyard and cellar, and concludes with six distinct wine tastings alongside DOP-certified olive oil.
The estate sits within the "La Badia" Wildlife Oasis, a protected natural environment that directly shapes the character of the wines produced here. Indigenous grape varieties such as Biancame, Verdicchio, Montepulciano, and Sangiovese grosso thrive alongside international cultivars, each reflecting the unique terroir of this corner of central Italy. The commitment to biodiversity is not incidental — it is foundational to how this winery operates and presents itself to visitors.
Guided by knowledgeable hosts, participants walk through working vineyards before entering the Officina Vinaria, the estate's production facility. The tasting session that follows is structured to illustrate how organic farming decisions translate into measurable differences in aroma, texture, and flavor across the wine range. A tasting of the estate's DOP olive oil, served with freshly baked bread, completes the sensory picture.
This tour is designed to accommodate both experienced wine enthusiasts and curious newcomers. The format is conversational rather than formal, allowing guests to ask questions about production methods, grape selection, and the philosophy behind organic certification. Visitors also have the opportunity to purchase wines and olive oil directly from the estate before departing.
