Full description
A tasting on the fly, or rather, alla volée!
If you are looking for an experience that makes 'the bang', you are in the right place: in Guiglia, at the TerraQuilia winery, you will not just drink a glass, but you will become the protagonist of an ancient and fascinating ritual. During your visit to the winery, in fact, you will enter into the heart of production with live manual disgorging.
Get ready to discover the most authentic side of unfiltered wine, concluding with a tasting of 4 excellent labels and Modenese artisan specialities!
What we will do
The appointment is at the selected time at the TerraQuilia winery in Guiglia (MO) , in the splendid setting of the Modenese high hills. We will be welcomed by our guide, who will accompany us on a discovery of the company philosophy.
We will begin with a walk through the rows of vines surrounding the winery, where we will learn about the land, the vines and organic cultivation; in winter, or in the event of bad weather, we will be able to admire the view directly from the terrace.
We will then continue with a visit to the cellar (approx. 50 minutes) , where we will see the winemaking and storage processes up close. The highlight will be dedicated to disgorgement: we will be able to watch the manual uncorking 'à la volée' performed by an expert or even try to open an ancestral bottle ourselves, observing the process live.
We will then move on to the guided tasting of 4 glasses: Pignoletto with the bottom, Pignoletto sboccato (or rosé) , Lambrusco Grapparossa and a still wine label. The tasting will be enriched by a platter of local products, including 24-month aged mountain Parmigiano Reggiano, salame gentile and artisanal breadsticks.
The experience will last about 2 hours in total.
