What To Expect
As the name of the tour suggests, on this tour, we are going to eat, then drink, then repeat that a quite a few times. Amongst a few glasses of wine and food, you will also hear stories and legends about the wine, the food, and last but not least, some highlight histories in the area. One of the wines we will be trying on this tour will be Prosecco, a freshly fragant white wine, and most of the time, sparkling, but there are more to the Prosecco than just the sparkles or the sparkling kind. During this tour, you will learn what kind of Prosecco you can use for one occasion or another. You will enjoy some Amarone and learn why its complex flavor makes the favorite list of many locals. From fragrant and crisp white to hearty red, this tour covers them all with food that best paired with it. Our guide will also gives you tips and tricks on how to avoid bars that look like tourist traps, and how to select a good bottle of wine in Venice not basing merely on its price tag (the most expensive bottle does not mean you will like it, and the less expensive bottle could be a good bottle), and what to look out for to not over pay for the wines. Highlights: • 6 must-try regional wines/ cocktail and food pairings ( usually enough for lunch or dinner) • Small group size for a more personalized experience • A wine enthusiast and foodie expert will be your guide • Legends and histories about the food as well as the areas that we will be visiting
