About this tour
A six-and-a-half-hour deep-dive into Campania's winemaking philosophies, starting with a private drive to a working producer. You'll walk the vineyard, learn how conventional, organic, biodynamic and natural approaches differ in practice, then taste eight or nine wines spanning these methods alongside farm-made food. A dedicated bilingual sommelier guides you through tasting technique and pairing logic, using an aroma kit to decode what's in your glass. A tablet-based overview of wine's journey from ancient times to modern Campania rounds out the morning before lunch.

What to expect
You'll arrive at the producer by car, then spend time in the vineyard observing the vines and hearing how each farming method shapes what grows there. Back indoors, the sommelier breaks down the practical differences—soil treatment, intervention levels, additives—using visual aids. Then comes the tasting: you'll work through wines methodically, learning to inspect colour and clarity, nose the aromas with the kit's help, taste deliberately. Lunch arrives in courses, each paired thoughtfully. The sommelier stays with you throughout, adjusting explanations to your curiosity and experience level.
Good to know
Wear comfortable shoes for the vineyard. The aroma kit and tablet presentations help non-experts follow along without jargon overload. Prams and stroller-friendly. Service animals welcome. If you prefer to skip wine, farm food can stand alone.
