Wonderful experience.

Published on Aug, 2023

Fabio was an amazing host and had a fabulous knowledge of the local wine industry. He picked us up in his very comfortable car and was a very safe driver. We visited 2 wineries , visited the vines and production areas and had tastings of the local products. Fabio took us to a wonderful restaurant in the mountains where we enjoyed great food and local wine. We later travelled further up the mountain for fabulous views over the valley. A great day enjoyed by Maree Colin and Rebecca from Australia.

Wonderful experience.
