Extraordinary place, and...

Extraordinary place, and lots of info provided! Wine was great, pace of the tour as well, along the organization. The only thing I would recommend is to give people a bit more time to take pics, when group is bigger is a bit challenging to get the right one :) but it's rather a recommendation. Overall, we really enjoyed the tour!

spectacular underground "Cathedral of Wine" experience

Our tasting tour at De'Ricci Cantine Storiche was nothing short of magical! It is easy to see why this is considered one of the most beautiful cellars in the world. The architecture and atmosphere alone are breathtaking, but the experience was made truly extraordinary by our guide, Emilio. Emilio was amazing—incredibly engaging, knowledgeable, and passionate. He took the time to explain the history of the cellars and the nuances of each wine, making the entire tasting both educational and fun. He didn't just lead a tour; he provided us with a world-class experience. If you are a wine lover or just appreciate incredible history and beauty, this tour is an absolute must. Highly recommended!

Great wine tour!

Very cool winery caves where they store their wine. Our host was very informative. We learned a lot history about the winery. We enjoyed several tastings of wine at the end.

Great tour! Recommend if you enjoy a bit of history and wine.

It was really good, very interesting to learn about the cellar, and it was fun to learn a bit about the pairing of food with what wine. However, a bit of guidance on what cheese to eat with what wine would of been nice. But overall very well organized, very friendly, and fun, and interesting especially if you like to learn about the history
