What you’ll do

Are you ready for new food and wine experience? This is not Chianti! This is not Montalcino! This is Irpinia. And there is a difference between a driver and a driver/sommelier. We provide the ability to walk through the vineyards, to touch the grapes, to be in contact with nature, to open an oak barrel to smell the scents of wine is not ready yet, to taste wines in the vineyard. Enjoy the tour visiting a winery and tasting prestigious DOCG (Denominazione di Origine Controllata e Garantita) status wines: Fiano di avellino, Greco di Tufo and Taurasi. At the end of wine tasting we visit a cheese factory, very similar to a farm. Don't forget the ricotta and caciocavallo are waiting for us! The last stop is at salami factory to see the live production. The best Prosciutto of Campania is from Irpinia.

Highlights

Embark on a captivating gastronomic and oenological odyssey in the enchanting region of Irpinia in Sorrento. Delve into the nuances of a seasoned driver/sommelier who will guide you through sprawling vineyards, allowing you to caress the succulent grapes and immerse yourself in the embracing embrace of nature's splendor. Indulge your senses in the tantalizing aromas of wine maturing in meticulously crafted oak barrels, and savor the exquisite taste of esteemed DOCG wines, including the opulent Fiano di Avellino, the captivating Greco di Tufo, and the majestic Taurasi.
Our enthralling journey extends to a dairy oasis reminiscent of an idyllic pastoral landscape, where luscious Ricotta and caciocavallo cheeses await your discerning palate. Lastly, witness the captivating spectacle of live Campania Prosciutto production at our renowned salami factory. Prepare to uncover the allure and distinction that epitomize the essence of Irpinia!
