Best tasting experience in Rome - Excellent afternoon in Rome doing wine tasting with Andreea. Started at a traditional Italian wine shop. The owner was a lovely man who not only served us great wine, but the best lunch we have had in Rome. Cheese, meats, pizza, bread, olive oil, honey etc, honestly amazing quality products. Meanwhile, Andreea, gave us great insights into history, Art, she really does have great knowledge about a great many things. Time flew and after a quick guide round a beautiful church. We arrived at our second winery. Modern, completely different. More food!! The wine was some of the best we have tasted. The tour was supposed to be 3 hours, Andreea was with us for like 4, always a sign of a good host. We actually stayed another hour, just to finish off our favourite bottle!! All in all, our best day in Rome.

Interesting - Our guide was nice, but it was a bit strange having a guide that told us he didn’t like to drink wine while on a wine tour.
