Enjoy Fine Italian Wine in Perugia
The region of Umbria is famous for its sausages, cheese, vegetables, truffles, and of course, wine. Since the Umbrian climate is very favorable for growing grapes, some of Italy's finest wines are made in the hills surrounding Perugia. Made in the town of Montefalco, the Sagrantino di Montefalco is the best-known varietal in Umbria. While in Italy, you may want to visit the Umbrian hills (especially the areas of Assisi, Trivia, and Spoleto). Here, the Italians produce some of the most flavorful olive oils in the world. The perfect meal in Italy consists of a table set with olive oil, local cheese, a loaf of fresh bread, and a wonderful glass of Italian red wine.
