    My husband and I had a great experience with Barbara. She arranged a convenient way for us to meet her for transportation to the winery high in the hills of Modena and to her lovely home afterwards for lunch. Harvest was just beginning at the winery but the owner and her son stopped their work to give us a tour and tasting of multiple wines. Barbara, as a sommelier, added many insights to the conversation. The lunch at her home was absolutely delicious (with very generous portions) - overall, the best meal we had on our 16-day trip filled with many good meals! Barbara is personable and charming. Throughout the meal, she explained her recipes and techniques. We throughly enjoyed our day and highly recommend this experience.

    Barbara was wonderful! It was like being with an old friend. She is incredibly knowledgeable about the food, wine, and the entire region. She's a sommelier and provided great feedback on the wine, the proper glasses, and food pairings. If we could give 6 stars, we would!

    Fantastic experience that exceeded our expectations! Barbara is an awesome person and an exceptional host! The wine tasting event was very well organized: a truly interesting and informative tour accompanied by delicious wines and tasty nibbles in a beautiful scenery! Barbara also welcomed us in her charming house, where she delighted us with an exquisite lunch prepared just for us! Heartfelt thanks to Barbara! We look forward to other Cesarine experiences in the near future :)

    I have a passion for homemade fresh pasta, including tortellini, ricotta and spinach tortelloni, tagliatelle, and potato gnocchi. I also enjoy preparing risottos with seasonal vegetables or cheeses paired with Traditional Balsamic Vinegar of Modena. I love making savory vegetable tarts and desserts, particularly pies with organic jams and traditional sweets from Modena. As a certified AIS Sommelier and wine course instructor, I take pleasure in pairing each dish with the right wine. Additionally, if the guest is a wine enthusiast and requests it, I can organize guided tastings for a more in-depth experience.
