Wine tasting in Umbria: vineyards and Roman ruins

Wine tasting in Umbria: horses and carriages, amongst the vineyards and exploring ancient Roman remains. With tasting!

By choosing this wine tasting activity in Umbria, you will have the chance to experience the whole day immersed in nature. Among the Sagrantino vineyards, you’ll discover the philosophy of organic winemaking. In the 6 hours you will spend together with our staff, you will also walk along a path and discover archaeological areas dating to the Roman era. The itinerary leads through one of the sculpture parks in the area of the valley of Assisi.

The horses and carriages that will take you on your ride to discover these magnificent views belong to one of the most well-known and renowned wineries in Umbria. The company’s success is underpinned by a strong philosophy and belief in organic vinification of the grapes and in the healthy and mindful use of animals in the vineyard. At the end, you will have the opportunity to taste all the company’s wines as well as a selection of high-quality Umbrian cold cuts and cheeses, accompanied by the famous Umbrian speciality, testo. Our staff will also be on hand and will take care of your needs, including food intolerances or allergies.
