Located along the picturesque Sagrantino road in Bevagna, Cantina La Fonte is a charming winery established in 2015 by siblings Francesco, a dedicated sommelier, and Giulia, a knowledgeable agronomist. With 3.5 hectares of organically managed vineyards, this winery focuses on crafting high-quality wines that truly represent the unique Umbrian terroir. The estate grows Sagrantino, Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Sangiovese, producing wines that showcase depth, elegance, and a genuine sense of place. With an annual output of 18,000 to 20,000 bottles, La Fonte emphasizes small-scale, hands-on winemaking that values sustainability and quality.

Cantina La Fonte goes beyond exceptional wines by offering a glimpse into Umbrian rural life. The estate also produces organic extra virgin olive oil and a limited quantity of saffron. Visitors can enjoy agritourism experiences that highlight the beauty of the land. Whether through a wine tasting or a stay at the farm, La Fonte provides an authentic look into the rich tradition of Umbrian winemaking.

Sunday morning with a tasting on their veranda overlooking the vineyards: a truly pleasant experience. The wines were generally very good (obviously, I did some shopping), with a couple of truly special wines worth trying. The atmosphere was family-friendly and authentic, with kind people who make you feel at ease. We'll definitely be back for more tastings.

We had an amazing time here doing a wine and food tasting! Francesco was so friendly (as was his family!), but you could tell he's also very passionate about what he does. Not to mention the food and wine were both absolutely delicious. We ordered a few bottles to be shipped back to the states and will likely continue ordering more. Highly highly recommend stopping by for a tasting or even staying here!

An aperitif amidst the vineyards is pure magic! The tasting menu is the perfect start to the evening. A beautiful wine selection, a rich menu, and, to top it all off, a breathtaking sunset.

A beautiful place, nestled in the heart of the vineyards, where you can celebrate, taste and purchase wine and olive oil, stay overnight, and enjoy a very romantic dinner! Francesco, Giulia, and their helpers take excellent care of their guests, and the wine is accompanied by excellent pecorino cheese (with truffles upon request) and prosciutto. Fresh white bread is also served! Bottom line: definitely go; it's very easy to reach by car and offers ample parking!

Amazing vineyard with a lovely setting and location sat in the heart of Umbria with undulating hills and valleys. The wines were tasty and paired with delicious antipasto and food and the service was impeccable! Would recommend everyone to come here! Grazie per la bella visita

Francesco's first-class wine tasting with ham, cheese, and bread. Giulia prepared everything with great care in the kitchen. Homemade cake with passito to finish.

We came for lunch and tasting and overall fabulous. Our second year in a row to visit. The Olive Oil is amazing and the wines very interesting wide variety all really good. We have gifted the Olive Oil to friends and family as well as restock from last year. The wines we bring home too and the Amarosa is a hit with family but the reds and whites both fantastic. Great visit. Highly recommend.
