Umbria’s Wine Scene: Azienda Agricola Carini
The rich history of Carini began in the mid 1800’s: Peppino farmed livestock and, in those days, the family produced wine and olive oil simply for their own means. It wasn't until the 1970’s that Armando and Bruna Carini began to market their products locally. After the passing of both Armando and Bruna, their sons, Carlo and Marco, set out to transform the established lands into vineyards, olive groves, and wild areas to raise ‘cinta senese’ pigs and sheep for milking. Although the two sons did not continue their father’s love for certain agricultural practices, they did see an opportunity to grow the business and bring even more recognition to their family and the region they proudly call home.
