La Fontursia

Love for land, Passion for wine

La Fontursia agricultural holding is situated not far from the old town of Ripatransone, one of the most ancient and peculiar town of the Piceno region, a town full of historical memory and medieval charms.
The name “La Fontursia” comes from the ancient Tuscio people, who lived in a fort by a water source famous for its healing effects, called “Tuscio’s people source”. For this Contrada Fontursia has got its name. Veccia’s family passed down the ancient wine tradition from father to son, adopted organic farming methods for 30 years.
