After a brief tour of the vineyard we sat down and enjoyed our food while sampling some delicious wines. My girlfriend and I ended up buying a couple of bottles too. We also had a great time with the other guests and left in high spirits. Highly recommend if you love wine.”

14.Dinner in the vineyard and wine tasting under the stars

★★★★★★★★★★4.9 · 41 reviews · 3 hours · from $93

Spend three hours at Vigna il Castagno with fourth-generation hosts Giorgio and Vincenzo. Enjoy five Apulian appetizers, handmade orecchiette, meat from a wood-fired oven, fruit, dessert, and four wines made with local grapes. Dinner is outdoors when weather allows, but a warm indoor setting is used in cold or windy conditions.

“Because of weather (cold and wind), the dinner was held inside a beautiful building that was warm and welcoming and comfortable for 38 guests. Giorgio and his brother Vincenzo - 4th generation - were our friendly and gracious hosts and sat everyone for maximum sociability. Food was grown or prepared at the vineyard/farm including wine and olive oil. The wines were well paired with each course of the meal - in a word, excellence. Delicious. A grand experience. I hope to return.”

We got to try truffle olive oil and homemade lasagna. The meal was wonderful and we tried 4 types of wine. I don't like wine and I found a white I really enjoy.”
