Agroforestale Fontezoppa is nestled in the picturesque Marche region of Italy, named after an ancient water source that once nourished the land where the vineyards now flourish. In this region, every alley, field, and valley carries a name that reflects the strong bond between the locals and their environment. The winery's team combines time-honored traditions with modern winemaking techniques to craft wines that embody the unique character of the region.
Situated between Serrapetrona and Civitanova Alta, Fontezoppa benefits from a harmonious blend of rich soil and a favorable microclimate, ideal for cultivating high-quality grapes. The winery lies between the Blue Mountains and the Adriatic Sea, creating an environment that enhances the growth and maturation of various grape varieties. Here, you will find Pinot Noir, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Sangiovese, Maceratino, Pecorino, Incrocio Bruni, Serrapetrona, and Passerina, all thriving under the gentle influence of the sea.
The Serrapetrona grape, an ancient varietal, is gaining recognition in the Italian wine scene, inspiring innovative practices and a return to its roots. The vineyards are planted with close spacing, which helps manage vegetation and improves the quality of the grapes, resulting in lower yields but exceptional wines. The collaboration between the winemakers and the land is vital, allowing for precise vinification and aging in carefully selected woods, ensuring each bottle tells a story of its origin.

Write a reviewA very nice place, the food is excellent, even gluten-free, accompanied by pleasant wines made on site. The welcoming environment and captivating scents. It's a shame that one of the two waitresses was out of tune, not a particularly pleasant and friendly presence.

We had the pleasure of having lunch at Locanda Fontezoppa and it was an excellent experience from every point of view. The restaurant, immersed in an enchanting location, is also a cellar with its own production of wines, which absolutely deserve to be tried. We started with an appetizer of cold cuts and cheeses: high quality products with an authentic flavour. Followed by two extraordinary first courses: tagliatelle with red ragù and ravioli filled with ciauscolo and pecorino, embellished with a truly delicious pumpkin cream. For the second course, a 1kg Florentine steak, simple but perfect: very tender meat cooked to perfection. Impeccable service, attentive and friendly staff. Highly recommended for those looking for excellent food, a welcoming atmosphere and quality wines. We will definitely be back!

A restaurant attached to the winery of the same name, located on a hill overlooking the village of Civitanova Alta. The menu changes seasonally, and prices are high, but reflect the quality of the produce. I recommend dining at sunset in the summer because the view is magnificent. The wines are excellent, and the staff are friendly. The only drawback: we had trouble finding items on the last menu that we liked.

Excellent cuisine and attention to detail ... Especially the jewel of the saucer (use it to prepare bread and oil while waiting ... with their oil!). Wine ... what can I say ... 3 glasses paired with 3 dishes ... do we want to add that they have a cellar next door? Worth a visit
