Winery Casa Vinicola Luigi Bigi (Bigi)

The winery has been rooted in the Orvieto area since the late 19th century; official sources record the founding of Casa Vinicola Luigi Bigi in 1880. Originally based in the former Franciscan monastery "La Trinità," production was moved to more modern facilities in Ponte Giulio during the 20th century. Over time the winery became part of Gruppo Italiano Vini and consolidated production of Orvieto’s characteristic white wines alongside a range of regional reds.

Official communications and public descriptions highlight an approach focused on enhancing the Orvieto area and promoting Made in Italy, with attention to grape quality and the expression of terroir in the wines.

The operations are rooted in the Orvieto area. The winery works with grapes from vineyards in the classic zone, notably the Vigneto Torricella on the hills overlooking Lago di Corbara; the appellation’s soils feature alluvial, sandy, volcanic and clay-rich characteristics, with vineyards situated at elevations ranging from 150 to 450 metres.

Among the recognitions listed online: Bigi received medals at the Berliner Wine Trophy.
