Over ons

A day trip out of Rome to discover the City of Wine and the Italian Pizza tradition!

You will catch the train in Rome Termini Station at 09:49 a.m. towards Frascati (this is a 25 minutes ride only!). Only on Saturdays, you will have to take the train from Rome Termini station at 10:14am directed to TOR VERGATA station (the main destination of this train is either Cassino or Frosinone, and you have to get off at Tor Vergata station after 17 minutes ride from Rome Termini station!

Once arrived at the station, a member of our family will welcome you, and you will be transferred to the Minardi Wine Farmhouse in less than 5 minutes!

As soon as you arrive at the farmhouse,
We will meet our Pizza Maestro, and you will enjoy a fun pizza making class in a special place, directly at the farmhouse!
Our local Pizza Master will teach you how to prepare the traditional Roman pizza, including traditional toppings and the secrets to prepare the perfect dough! 

After the class will take you on a tour across the old vineyards, which we still take care of with the same old farming techniques the family has been adopting for centuries. Travel into the past of the wine-making, listening to the stories and experiences of a passionate family of this historic land.

We will then lead you to visit the old wine cellar of the historic winery, where we will introduce you to the secrets and the historic wine-making processes of the famous Frascati wine. The Minardi Historic Farmhouse is now a sort of "Frascati Wine Museum" surrounded by ancient vineyards and olive groves.

Time to taste the famous Frascati Wine! We will guide you through a tasting of the three wines of the family production, the famous Frascati Superiore DOCG white wine, the Vagnolo IGT red wine, as well as the Frascati DOC White Wine. All of the wines will be paired with food matching also including 
 the Minardi Family’s own Extra Virgin Olive Oil.

You will finally enjoy the lunch consisting of several appetizers prepared by the chef  (local cheeses, selected cold Meats, seasonal vegetables)plus the Pizzas that you will roll down and top directly! Frascati Wine, water, ..and a tasting of gourmet wine ice-cream!
The farmhouse also likes the final musical surprise! 

At the end of the experience, we will accompany you in Frascati, where you will be able to take the train back to Rome (there is one train every hour).

We promise you that this will be a one-of-a-kind experience on the charming hills surrounding the Eternal City!
