Torgiano

Wine · PDO · 1 municipality

Established in 1973, the Torgiano DOC is confined strictly to its namesake municipality in Umbria, making it a highly localized denomination. Its red wines require a minimum of 50% Sangiovese, resting in wood for at least 6 months to develop a dry, harmonious character of proper body. What sets this Umbrian appellation apart from neighboring designations is a strict labeling prohibition: the term 'riserva' and similar quality qualifiers are explicitly forbidden on all Torgiano DOC labels. From classic reds yielding a maximum of 12.0 tonnes per hectare to specialized passito styles, every bottle must express its tier solely through precise grape and production definitions.
