Perfetta! - Wow, just wow! What an experience. From the tour of the vineyard to making then eating your own pizza, this is a must-do for anyone visiting the area. We couldn’t have asked for a better welcome from Anthonia and the food she cooked for us was fresh, homemade and better than anything we’d eaten on our visit to Naples. Belissimo!

Something that you will never regret doing for wine and gastronomic experience - It was a week before our holiday when I and my partner came across this winery. Antonio was very helpful, efficient and upfront when responding to any inquiries and concerns. I would recommend to have your own transport if you are really convinced that you can drive long and wavey distances. We were greeted with a warm smile by Antonia. She's the most warm hearted, very hospitable and that most welcoming host that we've ever been to. Thanks to her translator to keep us company to translate all the information that Antonia provided us. The wine, vineyard and pizza making is such an amazing experience like no other. I would say if you would like to have this with a few people, during the week will be a great choice. Most importantly the food that Antonia prepared for us in a classic Italian way: ravioli, pasta, and tiramisu and the wine was fantastic! The home cooked food tasted better than in restaurant (believe me!) . I barely write any any reviews and recommendation but I would say this is really worth it. I strongly recommend this kind of experience to everyone:)
