Wine Experience

With Nicoletta

Breath the Roman countryside atmoshere, taste my wine and learn more about wine culture of my region.

About me

My name is Nicoletta, I’m 35 years old. Me and my family are managing our winery together since 2015.

Our winery has an history since 1881. My parents started to produce quality wine in 1994 and they specialized in Sparkling wine in traditional method!

I have graduated in Economics Science and I have worked in an other field in my recent past! On 2015 I decided to come back to my native vineyards and keep going this winery! I’m a sommelier and a professional wine-taster.

In 2017 I told to my father: “Dad! I would like to make my wine!”. So I experimented my first vinification, making a natural and organic wine dedicated to my grandfather with the help of my father!

Experience

I would like to let envolve you in my world! We will walk into the vineyard. I will explain the productive cycle of the vine and you will learn how we make ande refine our wines. I will tell my family history because we are wine producers since 6 generations and 70/100 years ago the concept of wine for Roman customers was totally different!

Then, we will get down our Unique and Suggestive wine cellar cave that has been dug in 1881 and it is 17 meters deep in the “tuff rocks”. There, we refine our Sparkling wine — Spumante metodo classico, because the temperature is perfect for the fermentation into the bottle: 12° degree, stable!

Afterwards, we will taste three type of wines (our exclusive sparkling wine made by the same method of Champagne, regular white wine and regular red wine).

I’m going to teach you how approach to the wine by a funny evaluation method based on our senses: sight, smell, and taste.

Then, we will enjoy and relax ourself in front of many drinks and snacks, chatting and forgetting for a while the crowd of Rome!

The experience takes 2,5 hours!

Group can be made of 1 up to 12 people.

The wine tasting experience with Nicoletta was amazing; the location of the winery is a bit out of Rome so you get a chance to have a break from the busy city, and also its a beuatiful location. Nicoletta was very friendly and knowledgeable; we tasted three different wines and got a lesson in pairing different types of food items with the wines. All in all, definitely highly recommend! A bonus point - there were two cats who kept as company

we had such a wonderful afternoon on Nicoletta's family's winery. The area is beautiful and it was lovely to get out of the business of Rome to enjoy some delicious wine. Nicoletta was extremely friendly, getting to the winery was easy and she gave very clear instructions on how to do so. She is very knowledgeable and speaks passionately about the wines her family produces which made the experience extra special. We tried 4 different wines, sitting in their courtyard as the sun was setting around us, it was a beautiful way to experience some beautiful wines!

This was my second visit to the winery. Nicoletta and her family are wonderfully accommodating. Nicoletta does a phenomenal job at teaching the history of the winery while teaching more facts about their process. We love the underground cellar and the food pairing. Their wine and olive oil are spectacular. I am sure we will go back for a 3rd time.

Jeg er normalt ikke til vin, men jeg må sige at det har ændret sig efter denne oplevelse! Nicoletta er en fantastisk vært og det så spændende at høre om hele historien om deres vingård, og processen om hvordan det bliver lavet. Jeg kan helt klart anbefale vinsmagning her, hvis man vil have en ekstra ordinær oplevelse til en rigtig tid pris!

로마 여행 중에 선택한 와이너리 투어는 너무 즐거웠어요 😊 와인을 좋아하지만 전혀 와인에 대해 알지 못했었는데 이번 투어를 통해 와인을 생산하는 법, 그리고 와인을 음미하는 법을 배우게 되어 좋았습니다! 그리고 호스트가 와인을 정말 애정하고 있다는게 느껴졌어요. 😊 복잡한 로마 여행 중에 자연풍경을 감상할 수 있는 마을에 오게되서 기분이 좋았습니다!

Nicoletta is a super bright wonderful person and her knowledge about wine is amazing. On the top of that, comes her passion about the vineyard which is owned by her family in generations and when it came to tasting… she deserves all the stars! We left smarter and super great full and happy…😍 (And of course with a few bottle of delicious wine …😳😳😍😍😍😍🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹)
