Italy > Umbria > Perugia area > Torgiano
Torgiano is situated on a small hill at the confluence of the Chiascio and Tiber Rivers. It is located 14 km south of Perugia on the edge of the middle Tiber Valley and at the foot of the hills that makeup the last offshoots of the Martani Mountains.
A good road system, the E45, connects Torgiano and the localities of Brufa and Pontenuovo with Perugia, Assisi, Foligno, Bevagna and Todi. The position and appearance demonstrate its importance as a defense outpost. The fortifications have characteristics common to the Umbrian defense structures of the XIII and XIV centuries - the order of walls and towers and the plan of the castle are based on the configuration of the land.
The passageways dug into the banks of the compact sandstone and consolidated clay which still run underground, were in later times used as winecellars for the houses, parish church and palaces that stood above them. Significant traces of the ancient city wall are still visible and the Guard Tower is well preserved.

The Country House is placed in the Centre of a D.O.C. wine producing Farm and hunting forbidden Estate situated in the quite and panoramic Tiber Valley, which operative hearth is the FATTORIA SPINOLA, the owner's home.
The Estate is about 130 hectares wide, but only 100 are cultivated (wheat, sugar beet, tobacco and 12 hectars of vineyards). The grapes produced are brought to a Wine Producer Association where a very nice typical white wine (Grechetto) and a red Doc wine (Sangiovese), are made and sold in the Farmhouse. There are also a very pleasant Sauvignon, Chardonnay and an aromatic red Cabernet Sauvignon.
On Summertime a huge organic vegetable garden near the Farm is made for the owners and it is at client's disposal for free: all sort of vegetables, aromatic herbs (basil, parsley etc.) are cultivated without the use of chemical products..only sun, water and love!
The FATTORIA SPINOLA was a nun's Convent in late Middle-Age, transformed during the centuries into a farmhouse and acheived with 3000 hectares, villas and houses, by the last of Spinola Family's Cardinal in 1850. The surroundings of the property are formed by the Tiber River and by woods of very ancient oaks and many other typical trees and plants, where the wild animal can shelter. It is not unusual to see pheasants, hares, porcupines, quails, foxes, owls and many other local animals living undisturbed in the Estate: they are protected and respected!
The Country house and its dependence which forms the Agriturismo "I Mori Gelsi" are placed in the heart of cultivated fields, close to an hill of vineyards. It is surrounded by a fully fenced private garden with swimmng pool (5x10), fruit trees, aromatic herbs and flowers. The country house has been vertically divided into two big Apartments, while the dependence is formed by one little independent unit. Furthermore, each apartment has a private wooden lighted gazebo in the garden to enjoy outdoor lunches and dinners.
