Company
The Carini agricultural business comprises a 140 hectare estate, which includes typical Umbrian farmhouses and two small lakes.
It is positioned between the slopes of Mount Tezio and the plain of Lake Trasimeno, an area traditionally recognised as being particularly suitable for the cultivation of grapes and olives.

The family’s agricultural business began its activity in the mid-800s – starting with grandpa Peppino and following with grandpa Alfonzo – by rearing calves and pigs and producing wine and olive oil for their own sustenance. The business began with Bruna and Armando who in 1970 started to market their products locally. From the year 2000 onwards, Carlo and Marco transformed the 140 hectare estate – which includes farmhouses and two small lakes – into an entity capable of maximising the territory’s potential, as well as the traditions of Umbria, through the production of organic wine and olive oil, ‘Cinta Senese’ sausages and cheese.

The many faces of the Carlo & Marco Carini enterprise
-
Located in a mid-hill area at the foot of Mount Tezio between 270 and 360 meters above sea level and surrounded by a landscape of rare beauty, the vineyards of Sangiovese, Gamay, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Chardonnay, Grechetto and Trebbiano are all spur-pruned and cordon-trained on a territory that is for the most part marl-arenaceous.
-
The estate comprises approximately 2,800 plants which are distributed over 9 hectares of land and include four cultivar that are typical of the region: Frantoio, Leccino, Moraiolo and Dolce Agocia.
-
The Carinis are the only family in Umbria who breeds the ‘Cinta Senese’ by operating on a closed cycle (the pigs are born, grow, reproduce and are processed entirely on the farm), a conscious choice which ensures the highest level of quality and safeguarding of a breed of pig with unique characteristics, and which is now facing extinction.
