The Province of Terni (Italian: Provincia di Terni) is the smaller of the two provinces in the Umbria region of Italy, comprising one-third of both the area and population of the region. Its capital is the city of Terni. The province came into being in 1927, when it was carved out of the original unitary province of Umbria.

For over eight centuries "Decugnano" has been used to indicate the name of the land of the estate. The soil rich in fossils, oysters and shells, the micro climate and a wide temperature range are all factors particularly suitable for wine growing. Beside a very modern cellar, the visitor has the possibility to admire the Etruscan caves, today utilized for the production of the sparkling wine "spumante" and to mature certain wines in barrels. Within spectacular scenery, the Estate organizes guided tours to their cellars followed by wine tasting and local delicacies. WE ARE OPEN! Saturday & Sunday
Two couples (from well-regarded wine areas in California and Oregon) treated ourselves to the best winery tour and tasting/pairing we’ve experienced. Maurizio was our superb host and guide on a crisp, clear morning visit in late December. We arrived a few minutes late because our GPS tried to steer us the long/wrong way from Todi through Orvieto. If you’re heading there from the south, make sure your GPS is not confused. Maurizio knows his wines, and he proudly shares his devotion to Umbria. We’ve never encountered a place with an 800-year association to wine-making. It’s a perfect way to learn about crafting fine Umbrian wines, blended with history, culture, and spectacular scenery.

Orvieta's magnificent Duomo (cathedral) is considered one of the must-see churches in Italy for its stunning gold-and-mosaic Gothic façade and magnificent frescoes by Luca Signorelli, which had a great influence on Michelangelo's work in the Sistine Chapel.
When you are in Orvieto, Italy, the wonders never stop. From the beautiful Cathedral with the impressive murals to the long, winding, and cobblestoned streets, Orvieto and the Duomo is a must-see stop whenever you are in Italy.

Pozzo della Cava is more than just a well... ...it's one of the highlights of a historical and archaeological tour of Orvieto...it's a place where the past and the present combine with respect for twenty-seven centuries of tradition...it's an invitation to discover Etruscans, Middle Ages and Renaissance, because Orvieto is not only the Cathedral...it's a fascinating underground itinerary located in the heart of Orvieto, through caves full of recently discovered archaeological finds...it's an unusual way of discovering the history the city known as Urbs Vetus and the customs of its people...it's an original opportunity to retake possession of a disinterred heritage
We had already done the Underground Orvieta tour but found this one very interesting as well. Visitors here are allowed to wander at their own pace; there are clear detailed descriptions all along the way. The well has obviously been well studied with seemingly accurate explanations of the workings of the Etruscan inhabitants. The depth of the excavation is surprising. One hour is probably adequate but there is also a well-stocked book and gift shop to explore.

This is a must see if in the Umbria region. It is a marvel of Roman engineering and totally beautiful. The falls are visible all the time but if you want the best experience, check the opening time and get there about 15 minutes before. As the sirens blast out to warn you of the impending water rush, you expect a flood of water, but it’s more subtle. By the time it’s fully open you are completely soaked before you know it and so a poncho for 1euro at the ticket office is a must. There are several walks, and I recommend even the least active visitor should go at least part of the way. It’s so pretty and you really get to experience it from all angles, but be warned you do and will, get wet.

It was nice to walk among the ancient Roman ruins, good that it had descriptions in English and that it's free for locals. Not good in a hot day. However, very interesting

Well worth the time for this tour to explore underneath Orvieto's old town area; nice open rooms, and a few narrow stairs.

Designed in the 1530's, this uniquely engineered well was designed to supply the city of Orvieto in times of war.
This double helix resembling DNA is a marvelous creation of human beings. We went two days in a row. Thinking about building a structure like this many centuries ago is a good mind exercise.
