Fantastic way to learn about the region’s food and wine - It was a rainy day in Vernazza and we decided to sign up for the pesto making and wine tasting session. What a great time we had. Sophia was a terrific teacher and very knowledgeable when it came to introducing the wines we tasted. Great way to spend a few hours in this lovely little wine bar.
