Giulio and Matteo founded Equarantacinque Vini by combining different skill sets with a shared passion for wine and the Umbrian territory. After complementary experiences—Giulio in the restaurant industry and at a local winery, Matteo as an entrepreneur who began experimenting in his own small vineyard—the two met at an event dedicated to wine and discovered a common vision: producing authentic wines, deeply connected to the land and made with a low-intervention approach.

Their collaboration led to the recovery of two hectares of abandoned vineyards in the municipality of Sangemini, complemented by small plots between Perugia and Terni, in different areas of Umbria, where they cultivate both indigenous and international grape varieties.

At the heart of the project lies sustainable vineyard management and an essential winemaking philosophy, minimizing intervention both in the vineyard and in the cellar. The goal is to enhance soil vitality, respect natural cycles, and produce wines that sincerely express the identity of the places where they are born.
