Castello Monte Vibiano, a historic estate dating back to the 1st century BC near Perugia, is a pioneer in sustainable viticulture and was the first farm in the world to achieve zero carbon footprint certification in 2009. The 'L'Andrea' bottling, a flagship "Super-Umbrian" blend typically featuring Sangiovese, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Syrah, is sourced from high-elevation estate vineyards like the ancient Vigna Lorenzo, which are protected by a "green fence" of over 10,000 trees.

Now managed by Lorenzo Fasola Bologna, the winery emphasizes the preservation of local biodiversity while using cutting-edge eco-friendly technologies to produce long-lived, complex red wines
