About

Indulge in the ultimate wine tasting in a charming wine bar in the historic center of Rome, just footsteps from Campo de' Fiori. Step inside the boutique enoteca with wines stacked on every shelf where you will be greeted by your host Patrizia and her sommelier son, Giampaolo.

Once you're seated, let the games begin. Listen as the sommelier takes you on a journey around Italy and its wine production through the tastings of 6 different wines. 

• You will start off with a glass of sparkling wine, either Prosecco or Franciacorta, accompanied by taralli - a characteristic Apulian snack. 
• You will then proceed into tasting two different types of Italian white wines, paired with a selection of local, Umbrian, or Tuscan cheeses. 
• Lastly, you will taste two outstanding red wines from Italy, as well as a selection of hand-picked salami and cured meats.

Discover the different flavors, wine techniques, and characteristics of the wines you are served. You will also learn about wine pairing in addition to the culture and history tied to wine making in Italy.
