Nature comes first at Reschio, and always will. This is Italy as it should be, Italy as it once was, with rolling, golden hills, shady olive groves and dense oak forests, with flower meadows and an irresistible sense of wilderness. A place to let your hair down and breathe deep. This pristine corner of Umbria has been nurtured and protected by the family for years, and at the heart of it all is Donna Nencia, who lives and breathes Reschio. The result? A 1,500-hectare estate like no other
Nature
We call it “careful foraging” – sympathetically wandering through the landscape, searching for little-known or forgotten botanical marvels. Join Nencia as she explores the meadows, hedgerows and forests for natural remedies such as St John’s Wort, an unassuming yellow flower that holds a host of miracles. And we’ve not even mentioned the wild herbs, edible plants and mushrooms used by our chefs in the restaurants

Nature
We are fully organic, of course, but we’re going a step further, working towards making everything – the sunflower, hemp and wheat fields, the vegetable gardens and the poultry – fully biodynamic and synergic. What does that mean? Stroll through Nencia’s organic garden and you’ll get the gist. Here, vegetables are grown as nature intended: mingling with flowers, herbs and fruit bushes, all working together to grow and produce as much as they can. You’ll emerge enlightened and fragrant with the lingering scent of mint, lavender and rosemary
Our 1,500-hectare estate produces outstanding light reds and rosés, and some Reschio houses have their own private vineyards, where our head winemaker oversees the careful wine production for owners. Harvest time, from late September, sees everyone romping through the vineyards together to bring in the fruit for pressing. Our century-old olive trees, meanwhile, produce organic, cold-pressed oil which tastes simply sublime
Nature
Reschio’s flower-filled meadows and forests filled with flourishing wild herbs and plants have always been free of artificial fertilizers or pesticides. This means we are lucky enough to have thriving colonies of happy, healthy honeybees which produce our rich millefiori honey. Seek out our beekeeper, a regular on the estate, who will tell you everything you ever wanted to know about bees
The days are long, the skies are blue, the air is perfumed with the wafting scent of lavender and filled with the hypnotising sound of cicadas…this is the time to relax, unwind and regroup. Siestas optional, but highly recommended
The rolling landscape transforms into a riot of burnt orange and buttter-cup yellow as the oak forests change their leaves, and a feast of truffles, porcinis, juniper berries, sloes, olives and grapes are harvested. Come hungry
A gentle mist rises from the valleys. Long walks beneath crisp blue skies end with cosy afternoons in front of log fires, where warming glasses of red wine and comforting meals are just what’s needed. You’ll sleep the sleep of kings
Oh, hello colour! The fields and pastures burst into bloom, while the fruit trees show off their blossom and the countryside stretches its arms and greets the new growing season with a warm, lazy smile
