Cantina Custodi is located on the hills of Orvieto, in Canale , an area famous among the inhabitants of Orvieto for the fertility of the slopes suited to viticulture . It covers an area of about 70 hectares , carefully cultivated with olive groves , arable land and vineyards . Of the 37 hectares dedicated to the cultivation of the vine, at least half produces grapes falling within the DOC Orvieto Classico , while the rest is destined for the production of Sangiovese and other non-native vines such as : Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc, all derived from accurate clonal selections. The cellar was built in 2003 on a natural terrace overlooking the cliff and the Duomo , from which the cobblestone and roof trasses were borrowed , almost as if looking for a direct connection with the city.
