We had a wonderful time at the winery. The wines where just delicious with an absolute beautiful ambiente to enjoy them. We were also very amazed by the offered food. Not just local cheese, crackers Salami and the like but also a lot of it so it felt like a full meal of astonishing quality! We both would recommend a visit there! The time and experience is definitly worth the money you spend. Thank you for a wonderful afternoon!!

We booked this experience as we joined our son in Italy for a short 5-day break in Sesto Calende – and it was certainly the highlight of the whole trip. The drive was a 19km climb up into the hills which took about 30 mins. Would have been quite tricky to find without a GPS as it is certainly tucked away in a beautiful location – so peaceful. We were greeted by Maddalena in perfect English who directed us to the small car park at the top of a hill. From here we could see some of the vines whose fruit we were looking forward to sampling later on. We were the only Brits taking the tour so we had Maddalena to ourselves. She first showed us round the stainless steel vats where the various stages of fermentation were taking place. She also explained their organic philosophy and determination to use fully every part of the vine so that nothing is wasted. For instance, they produce flavoured rice, pasta, candles and even cosmetics using the stems and leaves. After seeing how all this was produced, we were keen to get down to the tasting. Our ticket included three wines and the Grappa – a wonderful 45% spirit that has to be tasted to be believed! They use two varieties of grape (Nebbiolo and Vespolina) and produce a number of delicious wines including a wonderful Rosé. Guests are seated in their individual parties around wooden tables in a tasteful room which has been designed to enhance the rustic nature of the estate. It seemed that everyone in the household was involved in some way - producing food in the kitchen to accompany the wine or serving up the generous glasses for us to enjoy. The young, school-age girl helping out with the serving had excellent English which made a mockery of our feeble attempts at Italian We were made to feel welcome – everything was very leisurely and there was no pressure to hurry along. The food we enjoyed was carefully selected to help us appreciate the wines and included a delicious cream cheese blended with herbs from the garden, melted gorganzola on crackers and charcuterie produced with horse and donkey. Don’t be squeamish – give it a go! You’ll love it. At the end there is an opportunity to purchase any of the products you have enjoyed and then the only problem is work out how many wines you can squeeze int the suitcase to fly home. There is no pressure to buy anything at all. I cannot recommend this experience too highly. Worth every penny and something you will remember for a long time.

Erg aardige en toegankelijke mensen. De omgeving was fantastisch en het was meer wijn drinken dan wijn proeven als je snapt wat ik bedoel! Hartstikke genoten en een leuke ervaring van over gehouden.

Super nettes Familienunternehmen! Das Weingut hat eine sehr schöne Atmosphäre. Man merkt mit welcher Liebe und Leidenschaft hier Wein produziert wird. Kleines Familienunternehmen mit Wohlfühlcharakter.

In einer kleinen Gruppe von 10 Leuten wurde uns zuerst das Weingut gezeigt und die Herstellung des Weines erläutert. Auch einige historische Fakten zu diesem Gut durften wir erfahren. Danach probierten wir einen Roséwein und zwei Rotweine. Dazu wurden passend örtliche Käse und Wurst Produkte zum Wein angereicht. Außerdem bieten sie gute Naturkosmetik an.
