Mass tourism has largely passed this region by — leaving a landscape of hills, forests, and towns that have changed little over the centuries.

Umbria sits at the geographic heart of Italy, yet feels worlds away from its more famous neighbors. Medieval hilltop towns, ancient olive groves, and vineyards producing some of Italy’s most distinctive wines — Sagrantino di Montefalco among them — define a region built for slow discovery.

This journey moves through the region’s wineries, truffle hunters, and family-run producers, with Marco Avigo hosting throughout. Full program details to follow — Umbria remains one of the most exciting additions to the collection.
