Wine Making Workshops in Cinque Terre

Cinque Terre, Authentic Pesto Cooking Class Wine Tasting

Pesto was wonderful!

Wonderful class with Helen. Made pesto, ate it with gnocchi and drank wine afterwards with meal. Would do it again!

Manarola Wine Tasting Experience with Maria

Delightful!

My mother and I had a splendid time with our host, Maria, and two other ladies from the UK. Maria was very knowledgeable and fun to spend time with and showed us some beautiful sights in the vineyards that overlook Manarola. We each had a very full plate of snacks (focaccia, meat, cheese, etc) with our wine tastings. It was very enjoyable to get to experience several local wines and understand more about the winemaking culture here. 10/10 would recommend!

Cinque Terre: Authentic Pesto Cooking Class & Wine in Manarola

Excellent!

Having read the reviews, we had to try this. First plan appropriately for the distance of this location from where you are staying it was quite a walk for us, – but beautiful! Despite the very hot July day, the location was breathtaking and comfortable with umbrellas and misters along the view of the sea. The pesto making component is not understated. The directions and experience were perfect. I had truly learned how to make the perfect pesto every time! We learned the origin of the ingredients and the necessity of the exact steps to making it. The owner was very easy to understand and tells a compelling story that is fun and uplifting. You are seated next to other couples and this made for an easy way to make new friends in conversation as we make the pesto. The entire experience iscompleted by dancing and a food board with prosciutto melon, mozzarella, tomato, and focaccia. Oh yes, lots of white wine! I highly recommend this.
