This was a very informative and personal experience. Loved the time spent with Maria and team. Thank you!!!

Erin_M

Maria and her family were as knowledgeable as they were entertaining. The olive oil, wine, and balsamic tastings were very educational. Overall a very enjoyable experience that I would highly recommend.

Margie_H

We very much enjoyed our time at the beautiful Tili Vini Società Agricola. Maria and her daughter were fun and engaging hosts / teachers. We learned a great deal from our tastings of both delicious olive oil and wines. Special thanks to them for baking awesome, home-made, gluten-free bread and biscotti for the person in our group who had that dietary need. We very much recommended this tour to others!

We did a combination of olive oil tasting and wine tasting. We started with a tour of the olive tree grove, and then learned about how the olive oil is made. We sampled both their olive oil and four of their wines. All were amazing! It was a wonderful experience, one which we would highly recommend.

We had a lovely time with Maria and Annalaura. We toured the olive groves and learned how olive oil was made, and then tasted different oils and wines. The property is lovely, and the products are delicious — their oil and wine were the only things I shipped home out of all the tastings and tours we did.

Maria and AnnaLaurel are charming, wonderful hosts. Maria took us walking through the olive trees, telling us about her 4 generations of family history with this farm. She showed us the different types of olives and the oldest tree in the orchard. We then watched a family documentary showing us the entire process they go through to make olive oil. We then had the pleasure of eating this delicious oil with Tuscan bread, cheese and salumi. They shared several of the wines they also produce, which were all excellent. We had the privilege of spending time talking with both of them and learning more about life in Italy. We thoroughly enjoyed spending our afternoon with the Tili family and farm. I highly recommend this experience.

For the most part this is an excellent tasting and I would definitely recommend it! It was really informative, friendly, and fun! However, the 30 minute video at the beginning needs to be eliminated from the experience or cut to under 10 minutes. There is a lot of valuable information in it but it is lost by the excessive boring and empty parts that only take away from the message. That’s why I am giving only 4 stars instead of 5.

Maria was so passionate and knowledgeable and it was super interesting to learn all about their family's olive oil and the challenges that they face in producing such a high quality product. The oil was absolutely delicious, as was the food that was provided and the wines that we tasted. Of course we had to ship some oil and wine back home, so looking forward to reliving the wonderful experience in Finland! Such lovely people, who went out of their way and personally called numerous restaurants to ensure we secured a dinner reservation nearby, despite it being Monday and lots of restaurants being closed. I would highly recommend this experience and the Tili Vini products!

Tili Vinci was recommended to me by an Italian colleague and so glad we took his advice. From the moment we arrived Maria was so enthusiastic and engaging about her family’s olive/wine business and it was a joy from start to finish. Not only did we have a good lesson on olive oil, but we also got a chance to taste 5 wines with a couple of varietals new to me. A delicious lunch was provided that showcased the food of Umbria with the olive oils of Tili. Well worth the price and such a lovely way to be introduced to Umbria.

Mama and her family made us feel so welcomed and like we were part of the family! The wine, olive oil, and food was delicious, the conversation was light and easy, and the farm was peaceful. We will be sure to visit again if we're in the area!
