FRASCATI WINE TOUR
A taste of Italy
A unique wine tasting tour that transports you from the Eternal City into the Frascati region countryside to a tranquil hillside Roman Villa encircled by vineyards and olive groves.

Grasp Italy’s essence from the hilltops of the famed Castelli Romani, “Roman Castles” as you experience history and enjoy a tour of the senses.


The only tour of its kind in Rome – Our wine tour visit one of the oldest and most beautiful vineyards in the Frascati region. The 200 acres of vines surrounding 17th century architecture and 3rd century caverns lined with Acacia and French Oak barrels are treasures of one of Italy's oldest and most distinguished noble families, the Pallavicini.


Our expert guide illustrates the local wine producing methods from antiquity to modern day and reveals Imperial Rome as the cradle of wine culture, where the Nectar of the Gods went from a status symbol of the elite to a pleasure enjoyed by all.


This enticing voyage of the senses concludes with a guided tasting of a special selection of Pallavicini’s featured wines, including the renowned Frascati Superiore white wine and fresh pressed olive oil. more >>
