Set in the rolling hills of Umbria, Assisi offers more than ancient streets and sacred sites—it’s a region thriving with organic viticulture, exemplified by Tili Vini Società Agricola. Located at Via della Cannella, 21, this boutique winery invites travelers to step into the world of sustainable winemaking with the signature experience “Vignaiolo per un Giorno.” This two-hour journey reveals what goes into crafting Assisi DOC organic wines through hands-on insight and sensory delight.
On arrival, visitors traverse verdant vineyards where grapevines flourish in soil enriched by nature rather than chemicals. The terroir here reflects gentle limestone and marl bands characteristic of Umbrian hillsides, underpinning vines that yield nuanced, mineral-driven wines. A guided tour through Tili Vini’s cellar exposes the careful marriage of tradition and innovation—from fermenting organic grapes in temperature-controlled steel vats to aging under meticulous watch.
Beyond the technical overview, the heart of the visit is a deep dive into tasting. Guests sample five distinct wines—ranging from crisp whites to robust reds—all reflecting Assisi DOC and Umbria IGT designations. Each pour pairs with local flavors: warm bruschette drizzled in estate-grown extra virgin olive oil, cured meats sourced from Norcia’s famed salumi producers, regional cheeses, and Umbrian desserts that honor this rich food culture.
Completing the experience, visitors receive a certificate as “Apprendista Vignaiolo,” marking their passage from curious onlooker to informed participant in the world of organic winemaking.
