Initially trained as a surveyor, Eraldo transitioned to winemaking in the late 1990s, focusing on natural, organic, minimal intervention wines. His vineyards are known for cultivating native grape varieties, such as Sagrantino and Grechetto, producing well-regarded wines like the Montefalco Sagrantino DOCG and Umbria IGT Grechetto Esimio.
