Top tier tasting and vibes - We had a great experience at the tasting and would recommend it to anyone looking for a unique and informative experience. The olive oil, food, and wine were all highlights from our travels in Puglia, and our host was engaging and knowledgeable.

Unique and relaxing experience - Good to learn when the olives was harvest to produce the types of olive oil and the different wines of the region

Correct wine- and olive tasting. - Very friendly service, not the ideal location. Tasted some of the local olive oils and then some wines that were accompanied with some regional dishes. Hoped to have a bit more elaborate wine tasting.

Disappointing experience - Well, where do I begin. I got my first impression via text since we had to reschedule the tasting from 12pm to 6pm, and that was no problem! We were glad they were so accomodating, so we finally arrived there at 5:50pm with a pleasant anticipation. There was a cooking class right inside, so we thought we'd wait outside until 6pm, somebody ought to get us or tell us where to go, right? Wrong! There were some tables and staff outside, too, but they ignored us the whole time, so we thought the person doing the tasting with us wasn't there yet. About 15 minutes later, we asked a guy, who was working there the whole time, about the tasting and that we had booked one online. He then showed us to a table outside. There was another group arriving, but I think they booked the tasting spontaneously (or at least not via Tripadvisor). The white wine was paired with cheese, and the rosé with bruschetta. The same guy who showed us to the table just started explaining, with no formal introduction or any welcome words. He gave us some information about the wines and food and always left us about 15mins for each tasting. But he always only looked at my boyfriend and not at me, he'd rather just look at the street, which I thought was very rude. I think we were lucky that the bigger group was there, too, because he did their tasting at the same time, so we wouldn't be unattended. After the rosé, there were two olive oil tastings, which he explained well, too. The other group only did a wine tasting and left after their red wine. That was the moment when they started neglecting us. There was a woman who brought us some honey to pair with the olive oil, which was nice. But after that, everybody just ignored us. We didn't know if there was something else coming or if it was the end of the tasting without any word. 45 minutes(!!!) later we got the attention of the guy who "guided" us through the tasting and asked him if there was a red wine tasting, too, or if it's finished. He then brought us a Primitivo, explained a few sentences, said this was the last one and then left. No "thank you for coming" or anything like that, we felt like we became invisible to them again. There was absolute no warm hospitality and we felt like we were some burden to them. The whole experience was extremely disappointing! So, if you would like to do a wine tasting in Lecce, for your sake, do it somewhere else!
