Top Emilia-Romagna Wine Tastings

"Our guide was so informative and she shared wonderful stories about the area. Each place we visited was a unique experience. Something my daughters and I will remember fondly."

"Food & Wine experience . Nine hours tour. Very welcoming. Knowledgeable person’s info and funny trough out the tour"

"We had an excellent time on the Delicious Bologna Food Tour! Mattia is an amazing guide who is clearly passionate about the culture and history of Bologna food. We got to eat some delicious Bologna specialties and learned so much! Highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Bologna!"

"This was by far one of the better tours we have experienced. Relatable, knowledgeable and friendly. We expected only a tasting but instead we were delightfully given an experience, with full stomachs."

"A tour and tasting with the owner/winemaker was terrific, and the wines were delicious and a good value. Unfortunately it was raining so we couldn’t tour the vineyards or see the views, but we still had a great tour."

"Very interesting tour to small producers in the region of Parma. Nice to see the production, taste something and buy good things to take home. We made the tour with Laura - she is a very good tour-guide."

"Our guide Georgia was so knowledgeable and accommodating. We loved it. We learned so much and enjoyed all the food!"

"Wonderful full day tour!! Max our driver and guide was awesome. He was very friendly and knowledgeable, and he made sure our day was great. I highly recommend this tour."

"A fantastic cooking class in Central Bologna, we loved it from start to finish, a great welcome platter of local cheese/meat with wine, followed by hands on demonstrations of multiple pastas & the best tiramisu we’ve ever had! This was followed by a lovely meal with plenty more wine. Thank you so much. I’d highly recommend this experience to anyone visiting Bologna who is interested in local food."

"NIce way to become familiar with wines from Emilia Romagna. We especially liked the Albana. Unfortunately, it is very difficult to find in the United States. Owner does a good job of discussing the wines and offering insights into why same grapes produce unique wines depending upon the region. Very pleasant evening."

"This tour was wonderful...so interesting.|Our tour guide, Amalda, was amazing. She is a lovely girl, so knowledgable about the areas visited. |We learned so much. Highly recommended."

"We can 100% recommend doing this tour. Mattia is super friendly and very knowledgeable about the region and the cheese making process. It helps that his parents run the cheese factory so he‘s basically grown up around the cheese and you can tell he‘s passionate about it. Next time we‘re in the area we‘ll definitely book another tour with him!"

"Really beautiful vineyard with a kind and knowledgeable owner! The tour was handled with organization and care. I wine was amazing too of course. Highly recommend on all counts!"

"The tour and tasting with Laura was absolutely incredible! She was extremely knowledgeable about everything at all three sites, and she appreciated everything we saw right there with us--from the beauty of the "dance' of making the Parmigiana Reggiano, through the love story of Bianca Pellegrino. It definitely felt, all throughout the tour, that we were going off the beaten path for the most authentic experience possible. I cannot recommend this tour with Laura highly enough."

"Excellent! Well organize & reliable. Our tour guide Matias was awesome, very knowledgeable in both process, professional & the sampling delicious! Thank you Matias it was a beautiful experience!!!"

"Amazing tour! Great food and great tour guides! Everyone was so friendly and knowledgeable! Thank you!"

"We booked this tour last minute and had no idea what to expect. Within the hour of booking, Claudio had contacted us to get our information and sent us photos of his van and the meeting point in Reggio Emilia, making things easy from the start. Claudio was super friendly and you can tell very passionate about his family’s business. His passion comes though in the tour. We started the morning going to breakfast at a little place in the countryside where I had the best cappuccino of my life and some local breakfast foods. This meal is included in the tour price. Then off to the RIGGIANO ;) cheese factory! This is the heart of the tour and you’re given a thorough explanation of how things work. It’s an intimate setting and feels super original because it is. This tour is seriously that great! From the factory you go to the farm and see the dairy cows. It’s a sight to see! Then you go to the final place where you’ll have a light lunch with cheese meats, wine, and balsamic, all of which are produced by Claudio’s family. To top it off you’ll get a gift at the end and the chance to buy what you want but there is no pressure at all. Claudio will return you to the train station and you will have had an amazing, authentic experience. Have you booked your tour yet? Seriously this was my favorite part of our two week Italian vacation. Book Claudio’s tour already! You won’t be sorry! Ciao!"
