About this tour
Spend two and a half hours in Rome learning how Italian wines work with food. You'll taste a curated selection of wines paired with regional bites, guided through the reasoning behind each match—structure, intensity, flavour profiles. Rather than a passive rundown of varieties, this session builds your palate-reading skills so you can make confident pairing choices at any Italian table afterwards. Dinner and drinks included.
Highlights
- Taste Italian wines selected for their pairing potential
- Learn the logic behind matching wine to food

- Explore regional Italian food-wine connections
- Take home practical criteria for future tastings
- Full dinner and beverages included
What to expect
You'll work through five to six wines, each accompanied by a small course or bite designed to show how the pairing works. Your guide will walk you through the reasoning—why this wine's acidity cuts through fat, how tannins frame savoury flavours, which regional styles suit which dishes. It's conversational rather than formal; you're encouraged to taste, compare, and ask questions. The session wraps with coffee and a chance to discuss wines you might seek out at home.
Good to know
Prams and strollers are welcome for infants. Public transport links are nearby if you're not driving. Water and coffee arrive throughout, so you won't go thirsty between tastings. Arrive ready to taste actively, not just listen.
