The foundation stone for the DOC classification was laid in the 1970s by the wine legend Giorgio Lungarotti (+1999). The zone includes parts of the eponymous municipality of Torgiano in the province of Perugia. If the grapes come from classified vineyards, the bottle label may state Vigna followed by the name of the vineyard.
