Full description
Beautiful wine cellar tastings, even more so in the Balmetti di Borgofranco d'Ivrea!
Natural cellars carved into the rock that today preserve wine and local delicacies, which you will not fail to taste during our carriage ride. Climb aboard and let yourself be led through the Ivrea countryside by my beloved horses and me, your coachman.
A 2-hour experience to discover the territory and its typical products!
What we will do
I will be waiting for you at the selected time at the meeting point in Ivrea (TO). You will recognise me, I will be on a carriage that will welcome you on board for the occasion; pulling it will be my beloved horses, with whom I have been working with great passion for over 40 years.
During our excursion on four wheels (and more legs!) we will venture into the countryside surrounding the village of Borgofranco d'Ivrea, which we will enter. A village that is dormant most of the time, which comes to life as soon as the cellars open their doors and become a meeting point for companies that share a passion for wine!
And not just wine cellars: these are the Balmetti di Borgofranco d'Ivrea, natural wine cellars carved into the moraine rock in the Mombarone massif! We will get off the coach precisely to visit one of these characteristic cellars and participate in a tasting of local products (included): maissa, canestrelli and a drink of your choice to accompany it.
At the end of the excursion, we will return to the meeting point in the horse-drawn carriage. The experience lasts a total of 2 hours.
Who it is aimed at
The experience is suitable for everyone with no age limit. Infants from 0 to 2 years old who will only participate in the carriage ride on their parent's lap are entitled to a reduced rate of €15, please contact us to make a reservation.
