About this tour

The 7-hour excursion includes air-conditioned transport and a guide who'll walk you through winemaking from vine to glass.

What to expect
Your driver collects you from your Bologna hotel and drives you into wine country, arriving mid-morning. A staff member leads you through the winery's operations—you'll see where fermentation happens, barrel aging, and bottling. Around 11 am you move to the tasting room with five glasses lined up, each paired with explanation of the wine's character and the vineyard it came from. After exploring a second storage building, you'll sit down to a proper lunch either inside the cellar or at a nearby restaurant. By 2:30 pm you're back at your hotel.
Good to know
Wear comfortable shoes for cellar floors. Breakfast isn't included, so eat before pickup. No special fitness required. Confirm lunch location preference when booking—cellar or restaurant seating both work well.
