The experience was nice the only negatives were that the walk to the seating was down a steep mountain path and this is not easy for those who have a hard time with steep steps and dirt paths. I wish the pesto was a bit more in quantity it was a small tasting. The hosts were nice and it was a good time. The scenery was beautiful.

Lifetime experience - exceptional wine
Wine tasted excellent, spot with devine view and nice guidance and company.
Focaccia served was a bit to dry.
The rest five stars deluxe.
Thank you 🙏

Amazing view!! Read for bus instructions!
This was an incredible view for a cooking class!! A word to the wise… getting a bus to the cooking class was confusing. We were coming from another city and didn’t realize we needed to buy the bus tickets down at the train station so don’t make the same mistake we did! We got conflicting information from shop owners around the bus saying that we could get tickets at a takeaway shop by the bus stop, but they only took euros and we only had a card! Train station took a card (and don’t forget you need 2 sets of tickets for getting there and getting back). The view was great and we would do again, but wish someone had given us bus advice so we weren’t late to the class
The host was gracious to allow us (and a big part of our group) to get there 30 mins late!

The views were absolutely...
The views were absolutely stunning, you’re much higher in the mountains than the cinque Terre so you have an amazing view! It was easy to get there from the neighboring village via train and then a bus up to the vineyard, and the host kindly met us at the bus stop.
The wine was fantastic and the pesto was good, but I wish they spent a bit more time talking about their wine, the area, etc. as we made the pesto. I also thought it would be a bit more food, don’t plan on this being a dinner, but it was good food and wine with a gorgeous view!

There’s a short walk down to the winery and we learned so much about the process of wine and pesto making. It was so beautiful and extremely fun.

Beautiful, Delicious and informative 🌻
Such a highlight of our trip! Getting to Volastra was super easy thanks to Andrea’s helpful directions and tips.
The vineyard is absolutely beautiful, with stunning views all around. The pesto class was fun, authentic, and delicious, and the wine tasting made the experience even better.
Such a special moment in Cinque Terre — highly recommended!

Private, Beautiful, 100% Memorable!
Wow, what a wonderful time we had! We loved finding this gem! The winery was just beautiful and so amazing how they work it in the side of those steep hills. Making pesto looking over the beautiful Ligurian Sea could not have been more beautiful! It was also very private & personal! Thank you to the BarCa, we will be back & will always recommend you! Wine was delicious too!
