Lorenzo Mattoni Wines, Bevagna, Umbria

History of Lorenzo Mattoni

Lorenzo Mattoni began his winemaking journey in 2013, aiming to enhance his family vineyards in Bevagna, in the heart of Umbria. The project originated from his father, Lodovico, from whom Lorenzo inherited his passion and love for wine. The goal was to recover hectares of land to cultivate the indigenous Sagrantino grape and produce it as a dry wine, in contrast to the traditional passito style. His brother Nicola actively participates, offering valuable support in the winery.

Vineyard Philosophy

The vineyards, covering about 9 hectares, are cultivated without irrigation, fully respecting nature and the family’s agricultural traditions. The calcareous-clay soils and spur-pruned training preserve the identity of the terroir. Lorenzo, assisted by a geologist, carefully studies the soils and harvests according to the natural composition of the land, aiming for an elegant and balanced Sagrantino that maintains the characteristic tannin of the variety.

Winery Approach

In the winery, the goal is not to alter the result of nature. Fermentation occurs in temperature-controlled cement tanks, while red wines are aged in 30-hectoliter wooden barrels. This method enhances the fruit, aromas, and structure of the wine while preserving its authentic character.

Main Labels

The first vintage of Montefalco Sagrantino was in 2014. In 2019, “Dinamico” was introduced, a red wine based on Sagrantino with added Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. From 2023, the estate also produces Trebbiano from a few historic family vines. Each label reflects the care in the vineyard, the Bevagna terroir, and Lorenzo Mattoni’s attention to detail.

Terroir Essence

Lorenzo Mattoni’s mission is to produce wines that evoke emotion, conveying the personality of the land and the authenticity of Umbria’s indigenous grapes. From vineyard to winery, the process reflects passion, respect for nature, and a balance between tradition and innovation, creating wines that express identity, elegance, and complexity.
