Half day food and wine tour in Umbria

Have you ever dreamed of rolling hills covered with vineyards, ancient olive trees, and typical old mills? This winery and olive oil tour could be right up your street. You’ll be part of a small group who will explore the site before enjoying typical Umbrian delights!

Enjoy an authentic Italian experience

Montefalco is one of many of Umbria’s beautiful hill towns and it is home to the Sagrantino, the most famous red wine of Umbria. And while you’re visiting such a place, it wouldn’t make sense to miss out on heading into the surrounding rolling hills! Just a hop, skip, and a jump from Perugia, swap the big city for a traditional winery and olive oil tour experience.

Explore a traditional winery and oil mill

Sagrantino is one of the most renowned wine production areas in Central Italy. So, this winery and olive oil tour really is a no brainer! Not only will you visit the mill and see how olive oil is made, but you’ll also have a chance to see the ancient trees that bear them. Only after you’ve toured the vineyards though! You’ll also have the opportunity to see the wine cellar and see lots of Sagrantino wine resting in wooden barrels. You will learn all the secrets of the wine making process and will also have the chance to visit the ancient mill. 

Sample typical Umbrian produce

Before your winery and olive oil tour ends, it’s time for the piece de resistance. Yep, the part that everyone has been waiting for – the tasting! First of all, you’ll be treated to four types of wine. That’s right – four! But it doesn’t just stop there – there’s olive oil too. Obviously, you can’t drink olive oil like you can wine, so it needs to come with other stuff for you to sample. Well, how does 3 different types of bruschetta sound? Pretty good, right. We thought so. It doesn’t stop there though – there’s also homemade cheese pizza, typical Umbrian pizza, and caprese salad. As if all that isn’t enough, you’ll get to try a traditional Umbrian dessert too.
