Super nice wine tasting - Magical view and wonderful arrangement Great knowledgeable Guide who spoke good English and taught us lots of interesting details about wine production. Nice tasting with good wines and nice snacks Things to consider: a little messy road to get there, dirt road last 20 minutes which is very weather sensitive

It was worth it - Despite the weather was not the best, the girl who told us the story of the estate and the cultivated vines seemed very passionate and competent. I personally would have liked to spend more time in the vineyard listening to how the vine and its fruits are treated during the year, before it becomes a finished product.

Worth experiencing - Super nice view of their vineyard and the sea. The tour in English was great with knowledgeable staff both in the production of the wine but also the history of the farm. Tasting was of high standard with good description of the different wines- matched with cheese, charcuterie and a smaller dish. The farm is located slightly “off” at Elba but if you have the time and opportunity, we highly recommend it.

great experience - beautiful winery in a picturesque location with beautiful sea views. The tour was great, very informative and rounded off with a great tasting of the wines produced. The local specialists were also very well selected. We felt comfortable seeing. Our group was very small and the young Dam who took the tour with us was very friendly, accommodating and funny. Thank you for the experience

We recommend this experience to everyone - My boyfriend and I participated in a Wine Experience with tasting of 5 wines. Julia was our guide for the two hour experience: very professional yet friendly and kind. Perfect tasting on the terrace overlooking the sea, wines accompanied by excellent tastings of local products. Super!
