“Decugnano dei Barbi provided an unforgettable 10th Anniversary with unrivaled views and peerless customer service.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 December 2012 via mobile

My wife and I spent our 10th Anniversary in Orvieto with an afternoon scheduled for Decugnano dei Barbi. The views offered by Decugnano are breathtaking, especially of Orvieto itself. However, the real star is the personal experience. This star is polished to a radiant sheen by Anna Rita, our guide. I was even able to coordinate surprise vow renewals for... More

“A Delightful Day at Decugnano Dei Barbi”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 November 2012

Despite the rainy weather which made the drive from Rome to the winery and back again to Rome quite difficult, we had a delightful day with Anna Rita and Rosanna. I'm sure the views would be better on a sunny day, but we could still appreciate the natural beauty of the region. The tour of the winery was very interesting,... More

“An absolute must - Decugnano Dei Barbi”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 October 2012

You will not remember this experience with anything other than fondness - it was, as so many here testify, the highlight of our trip. Up in the Umbrian hills, with a spectacular view across the valley towards Orvieto and its towering Duomo in the distance, this would be worth the meandering drive up the hillside on its aesthetics alone.
