Additional Information
My name is Jessica, it’s my pleasure to guide you on a tour of the vineyards and our wine cellar.
With a fervent zeal for wine, we produce it with a deep regard for the environment, relentlessly striving for superior quality whilst acknowledging the inherent poetry present within wine.
Our aim is to provide visitors an immersive exploration into the world of oenology, particularly via tastings and an educational journey through the stages of wine production from cultivation to maturation.
Join us for a scenic stroll through the vineyard, where, varying with the seasons, you can observe and gain an understanding of the various processes through which wine is made. Learn how the wine journey starts in the vineyard and continues in the cellar from alcoholic fermentation to wooden-barrel aging.
The experience culminates with a wine tasting session, complemented by locally-sourced produce from leading local farms.
In the event of inclement weather, all activities are moved indoors.
Tours commence at 11:00 and 16:00, but if these time slots do not suit your schedule, please feel free to get in touch!

An experience to live - Beautiful experience: I was given for graduation the package for 2 people including wine tasting and I went with my boyfriend. The preparation and kindness of Federica and Jessica really impressed us. Jessica accompanied us in the vineyard and cellars, explaining the preparation of the wine from sowing to the finished product, exuding so much enthusiasm and passion for her activity, making her love us too. Federica followed us for the tasting, a young sommelier, very prepared is available: she gave us a real experience between smells and flavors, explaining the history and characteristics of each wine. Absolutely recommended.
P.S. Vista mozzafiato!

5 stars are few, we would have given the sixth - Starting from the place, we found ourselves immersed in a wonderful landscape, one of those landscapes that you see in films or in a person's best dreams. Colors and landscapes from a film library. We were totally captivated by Jessica, by the passion she puts into her work and which she totally transmits during the guided tour of the vineyard, the cellar and then the tasting. Everyone was disarmingly kind and competent, we were enchanted by everything. Suitable place for both groups and couples. 100% recommended, definitely worth a try. A round of applause to Roberto and Jessica for their work.

Winery with tasting - Nice and informative walking tour and tasting. The view was also amazing!
Well worth the money.
The accessories for the test were high quality.
The guide was well read and everything was said in English.
The price of the wines was moderate,
11-24 euros.
Please bring the car here, as it was really steep hills up to the farm.
