Assisi
About 10 minutes by car from Assisi you can do this special experience. Our truffle hunter will show you how to find truffles walking through the woods, how to use them in the best way, offering you all the secrets, and furthermore how to cook and enjoy them. It will start in the morning at the Winery. From there, together with a truffle hunter, we will enjoy a walk in a wood with trained dogs hunting the so called black diamond of Umbria, truffle. You’ll spend the morning discovering this ancient and typical Umbrian art and then we’ll go back to the winery to taste this precious ingredient in different traditional dishes paired with organic wines. Please note: We walk in the countryside so you need shoes suitable for that (runners are ok). Please let us know if you are unable to walk on uneven terrain, we will walk for about 1h – 1h30 in the wood, or if you have any special dietary requirement (e.g. vegetarian, allergies...) If we have bad weather we will be in touch to make sure you are still up for it!
