Best experience ever - Antonio picked me and my girlfriend up in Caserta, promptly showing kindness and hospitality. Since he is a native, on the way he showed us paths surrounded by nature and wonderful landscapes until the sunrise. Then we arrived at the wine cellar, where he lives with his family and where we had dinner drinking their wine and eating traditional delicacies, while Antonio was playing his guitar. The day after we met Antonia, who run the business without renouncing to the proper love of an italian mum. She prepared breakfast, always with local food, and taught me how to make "maccaroni", a pasta of their tradition, with ancient tools. As an aperitif, they explained us how to make pizza and they gave us the chance also to make and cook them. Their pizzas are delicious, one of the best ever had, but ours were pretty good too! We had lunch eating the morning pasta, obviously together with Antonio's guitar and their delicious wine. Finally we took a walk through their vineyards and Antonio explained their history and the wine production process. He accompanied us to the bus station and we came back Rome. It was a great weekend, thank you very much!

Wine tasting at its best! - This was by far one of my best experiences while in Italy! I actually went twice while there. The hospitality is unlike any you’ve ever experienced. The intimate, homely setting sets the tone for such comfort and relaxation. The food they serve is absolutely delicious and the wine is SO good! Make sure you go hungry as the food just keeps coming! One of my visits we prepared our own pizzas from making the dough to making the pizza and then cooking and eating it. The second time we prepared ravioli from scratch which ended up being our lunch. We also made pizzas again to munch on until lunch was served. Mama is the sweetest person and will have you laughing all day! Antonio shares his knowledge of wine, provides entertainment and will keep your wine glass full! They provide the best experience you can imagine! I am so thankful I got to have this experience and cannot wait for my wine to be delivered to the states!!!

So awesome I had to go twice! - Came to Italy for two weeks and after the first trip to Corte corbo winery I had to go again. And let me just say the experience was just as great of not better. You arrive as a guest and leave as a member of the family, everything they do is a league above and no praise is good enough to describe the experience. A must go to everybody. If you are in Italy this is a must-go place to visit. Thankyou so much for the best experience of my life. Love you all! Alla salute nostra!

Fantastic experience - Antonio and his mother Antonia welcomed us in the most beautiful surroundings, where we first got a tour of the vineyard. We made pizza from scratch with delicious local ingredients, many of which were from Antonia's own garden! We were served lovely wine and delicious home-cooked food until we were completely full. The atmosphere was homely and it was really a pleasant day. Antonio and Antonia were very hospitable and nice. We can more than recommend a trip to CorteCorbo wines.

The best authentic Italian experience you need - My friends and I had booked a visit to this Italian winery and were picked up by a bus to bring our group of 12 one hour to this magical place. This special place far exceeded expectations. We were greeted with the warmest of welcomes from everyone like we were family that they hadn’t seen in years. After getting settled in, we were presented with our first of 6 wines. A full spread of appetizers and lots of talking about the whole operation of the vineyard kept us busy until we started the pizza making. I have a culinary background and was blessed to be able to help with food prep for the pizza experience for everyone. I had good food in Italy up to that point, but wasn’t blown away by it all until I went to here. Everything served was fresh from their garden and property and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We were served a total of 6 courses, each course was top notch and amazing, I was thoroughly impressed. Out of all my adventures in Italy from Rome to the coastline to Pompeii, this trip to CorteCorbo vineyards topped every single one of those and will be one of the highlights of my trip. I look forward to returning back here and visiting this lovely family. Thank you for making us feel special and like family.

Full immersion in the vineyards - I went to Cortecorbo company this summer, I remember that day perfectly, was a great day. I met Antonio the guy who showed us the vineyard and was a lovely guide, he showed us not just the vineyard but also the cellar where they make wine. After this beautiful stroll we started with the cooking class and wine tasting where we met Antonietta, “ The soul of the day”. She’s a typical Italian mum, kind, sweet and nice person. She taught us how cook real Italian pizza. Was a incredible day, I’ll never forget.
