Situated in northern Umbria, near the picturesque village of Monte Petriolo, Tiberi is a fourth generation family winery tended to by Cesare Tiberi and his grandchildren Federico and Beatrice. Spanning less than 4 hectares, Tiberi’s small plots celebrate native red and white grape varieties including Gamay del Trasimeno, Ciliegiolo, Grechetto, Trebbiano and San Colombana on soil that is mostly rocky marl and brushed by dry Mediterranean winds. This link to the past – through the untouched soils and Cesare, who has always lived and worked in the village – makes for very rustic wines with soul. In 2015, Federico and Beatrice, with the help of Cesare, brought Tiberi into the modern age by selling their wines beyond just the local village. The experiment paid off and now they are widely considered to be ‘ones to watch’ in the region, with every vintage better than the last. Cesare has his own little wine cellar, separate from the main Tiberi cellar. It’s here that he makes one orange wine – Bianco di Cesare – and one red wine – Rosso di Cesare – each year using the oldest vines and barrels. We’re very lucky to be able to have a small allocation of both of these wines, as there were just 800 bottles made.
