It’s roughly 30 km from Perugia to Montefalco, home of Sagrantino DOCG first recorded in the 1500s. Vineyards climb to around 450 m, and estates like Arnaldo Caprai and Perticaia shape a naturally tannic grape into age‑worthy reds. The drive via Torgiano and Bevagna threads olive groves and stone terraces. Expect vaulted cellars, side‑by‑side tastings of secco and passito, and a clear sense of how well‑drained clay‑limestone soils forge structure and depth.
In Umbria, your Perugia-based private chauffeur collects you from the hotel at the agreed time and keeps a Mercedes at your disposal all day. You taste while they drive; transfers between wineries run 15–25 minutes, with pre-booked visits when required. The route focuses on Montefalco, includes a lunch overlooking Sagrantino vines, allows a quick Bevagna detour if you wish, and ends late afternoon with room in the trunk for selected bottles.

Your chauffeur’s tip
From April to June and during early-September harvest, book morning slots before 10:30; cellars are quieter and the southwest‑facing slopes look their best from Montefalco’s terraces.
