About this tour
Spend two hours in Lecce's backstreets at La Strada del Vino, a neighbourhood wine bar where a local sommelier guides you through Puglian dishes and regional wines. You'll eat what locals eat—no tourist menu—in a restored space that feels like stepping into someone's living room. Bottled water included; vegetarian and vegan options available.

- Sommelier-led tasting of Puglian wines and regional food
- Authentic neighbourhood wine bar, minimal tourist presence

What to expect
You'll arrive at a characterful wine bar tucked into Lecce's old town, where the sommelier will walk you through the evening's wines—likely Negroamaro or Primitivo—paired with seasonal Puglian fare. Expect cheeses, cured meats, seafood or vegetable dishes depending on what's available that day. The atmosphere is intimate rather than formal; conversation with the sommelier and other diners is part of the experience. Two hours is enough time to taste several wines and eat without rushing, though it's a tasting-menu pace, not a multi-course sit-down dinner.
Good to know
Minimum two people per booking. Public transport reaches the old town easily; the bar is pedestrian-accessible. Prams and wheelchairs are accommodated. Service animals welcome. Infants sit on a lap. Multiple time slots available throughout the day.
