About us
Between the Adriatic Sea and the Gran Sasso mountains, UMA Casanatura was created from a desire to protect a special place and share the authentic beauty of Abruzzo through wine, hospitality, and a deep respect for the land.
Our Story
UMA Casanatura is the story of a family and a place.
For years, this land lay quietly among the rolling hills of Atri, Abruzzo. When we first arrived, we saw more than land and olive trees. We saw the possibility of bringing a landscape back to life.
Over time, the estate was carefully restored, always with respect for its natural character. Vineyards were planted, olive groves were preserved, and biodiversity became a guiding principle in every decision we made.
Today, UMA extends across 31 hectares of vineyards, olive groves, truffle orchards, woodlands, and natural habitats. It is a place where agriculture, hospitality, and nature coexist in balance.
As the project evolved, close friends became part of the journey, bringing new ideas, energy, and a shared belief in the value of authentic hospitality. Together, we expanded UMA beyond wine, creating a place where guests can slow down, reconnect with nature, and experience the true spirit of Abruzzo.
What began as a family project has grown into a shared vision. One shaped by friendship, respect for the land, and the desire to create meaningful experiences through wine, nature, and hospitality.
Between Sea and Mountains
The Land
Set on the hills of Abruzzo at 350 metres above sea level, UMA Casanatura lies between the Adriatic Sea and the Gran Sasso mountains.
Our estate covers 31 hectares of vineyards, olive groves, truffle orchards, woodlands, and protected natural areas. Surrounded by biodiversity, the land is shaped by clay-limestone soils, abundant sunlight, and the constant influence of sea and mountain breezes.
This balance between nature, climate, and landscape defines not only the character of our wines, but also the experience of staying at UMA.
Every season brings its own colours, aromas, and rhythms, reminding us that the most valuable luxury is time spent in nature.
Our Philosophy
We believe that great wine begins with healthy soils, biodiversity, and respect for natural rhythms.
For this reason, our vineyards are cultivated organically, preserving the balance between agriculture and the surrounding ecosystem. Every choice, from the vineyard to the cellar, is guided by a simple principle: to express the identity of our land as honestly as possible.
Our approach favours quality over quantity, patience over speed, and authenticity over trends.
The same philosophy shapes our hospitality. Whether through a glass of wine, a stay among the vineyards, or a moment of quiet beneath the stars, we invite our guests to reconnect with nature and rediscover their own pace.
What guides us
- NATURE: We work in harmony with the land, preserving biodiversity and respecting the rhythms of each season.
- AUTHENTICITY: Everything we create reflects the character of our place, our wines, and our way of welcoming guests.
- CRAFTSMANSHIP: From the vineyard to the cellar, we favour care, patience, and attention to detail over large-scale production.
- HOSPITALITY: We believe that the most meaningful experiences are often the simplest: a shared glass of wine, a conversation, a sunset, or a moment of quiet.
More than a wine
Wine is at the heart of UMA, but it is only part of the story.
The estate is a place where vineyards, olive groves, nature, and hospitality come together. Guests can stay among the vines, discover Abruzzo through curated itineraries, enjoy wine tastings, relax with a massage, or simply slow down and reconnect with the landscape.
UMA is not a destination to visit quickly. It is a place to experience.
Through wine, nature, and slow hospitality, we invite you to discover the authentic soul of this region.
UMA Casanatura is not a destination, but a starting point
