The taste
of Montefeltro

Truffle, Cartoceto DOP oil, native wines, cheeses, ceramics

Authentic flavours

Everything the earth provides
that we are able to recognise.

Montefeltro is a border region, situated between the Marche, Tuscany, Romagna and San Marino. Its cuisine reflects this diverse identity, featuring PDO products that are unique in the world. There is no restaurant at Colleverde, but we will personally recommend the best trattorias and the most authentic food and wine experiences.
