Italy is well known for its outstanding food and wine: lively Prosecco in Veneto, powerful Barolo in the Langhe area, aromatic Chianti wine in Tuscany…

Every region has a lot to offer, with so many spectacular wines that can be perfectly paired with authentic local produce, such as typical hams, salami, cold cuts and cheese.

If you would like to experience Italy in a glass and have a glimpse inside a real Italian home, this Wine tasting experience is for you.

The experience takes place in the home of a local professional Wine Taster from ONAV (the Italian Association of Wine Tasters)*. Your host will teach you all about the typical wines of the region you are visiting. Together with your host you will:

Learn the basic techniques of wine tasting in order to detect and enjoy its different notes and aromas.

Taste 3 different regional wines and discover their characteristics.

The tasting session includes one red wine, one white wine and one “special” wine (the specialty of the area you are visiting), which can be either a sparkling wine or one dessert wine.

The wine tasting will be paired with savory regional food: a table of cold cuts and cheese or vegetarian appetizers. As you sip the different wines, you will also have the chance to discover the local delicacies. Of course, if you do not finish the wine during the tasting session, don’t worry... You can take it back home and enjoy it afterwards!

As this experience is private, you will have the time to ask all the information you would like to have in a lively and authentic atmosphere.

As we say in Italy “In vino veritas = In wine there is truth”. Are you ready to taste the true Italy?
