My husband and I enjoyed this minimum 10 or 12 person wine tasting BY OURSELVES. So lucky! The wines were delicious and the food pairings were very good. Our guide, Sandu, taught us a lot about Italian wines and we ended up purchasing some to ship home. This was a definite highlight of our trip.

Perfect place to spend an afternoon
The wine was fabulous. Our sommelier Sandu was very knowledgeable, friendly and shared a lot of information with us. The accompaniments of meat, cheeses and jam were the perfect pairing. The atmosphere was very inviting and everyone very welcoming. Thank you for a wonderful experience!

Another side of Tuscany worth seeing
We enjoyed the tour and getting to know more about the region. It is a long day, but worth the time it takes to get to these beautiful cities to see another side of Tuscany. The wine tasting was fun and we also enjoyed having time to explore on our own.

Thank you for sharing your experience. However, we believe this review may have been posted on the wrong page, as our wine tasting takes place in Como, Lombardy, and does not include a tour of Tuscan cities or Tuscan wines. We kindly invite you to check your booking and leave the review for the correct experience. We would nevertheless be delighted to welcome you to our wine tasting in Como in the future! Thank you!

Lake Como Wine tasting off the beaten path
Give yourself some time to get there, and find the off path store.
Upon arrival, we were greeted in a cute little bistro style wine shop. Definitely had a local vibe with the normal clientele visiting while we were tasting.
Our sommelier was very knowledgeable and generous with the pours. We had the cheese and meat plates with the tasting. The peppered beef paired phenomenally with the heaviest of vino tinto.
The price point for bottles was not horrible and they offered shipping outside of Italy.
A couple did not arrive so we had a little more wine to the four of us - yum ;).
The high speed train failed us on the return, but the local train worked. Do not get suckered into a 130 Euro Uber.

Great👏
A very personal tasting experience, the host put in a lot of effort, answered all questions in detail, and made a good wine selection. The veggie dishes served with it were lovingly prepared and, just like all the wines tasted, also very delicious. Definitely recommended for wine lovers!
