Culinary Experience
Imagine staying in an old barn, carefully restored, immersing yourself in the calm of the countryside, glimpsing the Alps in the distance at sunset.
Imagine discovering the territory through its most typical products, walking through the rows from which the wine you have in your glass comes, meeting the cheesemaker who prepared the cheese you are tasting, and picking a tomato directly from the plant before cooking it.
Imagine spending a morning in the kitchen, learning the gestures that generations of Italians have perfected to achieve today’s culinary excellence. And then to taste those dishes, rich in flavor and poetry.
Imagine a completely immersive holiday, so intense and true that it leaves you with the feeling of having lived in Italy to the fullest.
