Full description
There are some pairs that are simply inseparable. Laurel and Hardy, Thelma and Louise, Tom Holland and Zendaya… wine and olive oil!
Come and discover the true spirit of the Karst region at the Parovel Cantina winery in San Dorligo della Valle. A journey through flavours that combines a tour of the underground cellars with a tasting of indigenous wines and local extra virgin olive oils.
An inseparably delicious combination!
What we will do
The tour will take place at the selected time at the Parovel winery in San Dorligo della Valle (TS), set against the backdrop of the Karst.
We’ll begin our tour by exploring the winery’s historic rooms. We’ll head down into the underground cellars, where the guide will explain how the south-facing terraces, blessed by the Mediterranean climate, have always yielded perfect grapes for creating full-bodied wines with great ageing potential. The tour will last around 20 minutes.
Once our curiosity has been satisfied, we’ll move to the tasting area to enjoy the tranquillity of the nearby River Rosandra. When booking, we’ll be able to choose between two options:
- 2-wine tasting: a welcome glass of Visavì Barde Prosecco DOC Trieste, three Chef Collection EVO olive oils featuring the native Bianchera variety, two wines blending the Karst and Istria regions, and a paired canapé.
- 4-wine tasting: a welcome glass of Visavì Barde Prosecco DOC Trieste, three Chef Collection extra virgin olive oils featuring the native Bianchera variety, four wines from the Carso-Kras DOC region (including Istrian Malvasia, Vitovska, Terrano and Refosco d’Istria) , and
- two canapés featuring gourmet products selected from Slow Food Presidia and producers in Friuli-Venezia Giulia.
The experience will last approximately 1. 5 hours.
