Culture, history, tradition and ancient taste: all that belongs to Tudernum’s territory. Cantina Tudernum is placed at the slopes of Todi’s hill, along the ancient Tiber Road, and since 1958 we are proud to produce wine only with the grapes of our associated viticulturists of the surrounding area. Cantina Tudernum offers wines of high quality at a fair price using a modern technology of vinification unifying innovation and tradition. We produce and vintage yearly about 4000 tons of wine-grape. The variety of cultivated grapes allows us to offer a wide range of wines, from the local ones such as Sagrantino di Montefalco, Grechetto di Todi, Sangiovese dei Colli Martani to the international ones such as Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay and Merlot.
