Full description
A wine tasting like a king (or queen! ): this is what awaits you at the Castello di Corbara winery, located right next to Lake Corbara amidst woods, hills and lush vineyards.
Together with a guide, you will explore the entire production process, from tending the rows to bottling.
A 2-hour experience, crowned by a tasting of 4 glasses and a rich platter of local specialities!
What we will do
The appointment is at the selected time at the Azienda Agricola Castello di Corbara near Orvieto (TN), located in the setting of the lake of the same name. We will be welcomed by the guide who will accompany us on this immersion into the world of wine.
We will begin the tour with a walk through the surrounding vineyards and hills (weather permitting) , to breathe in the atmosphere of the estate. We will then continue with a tour of the cellar, visiting all the production rooms where we will be shown the machinery and the stages of vinification, right up to the final moment of bottling. We will also have the opportunity to see the barrique area, dedicated to the delicate process of wine ageing.
For the final part of the experience, we will move upstairs to a tasting room. Here we will taste four glasses of wines representative of the estate's production: Grechetto (Umbria IGT, an indigenous vineyard) , Pianagrande (Orvieto Classico Superiore DOC) , Mariagrazia (Umbria IGT, a rosé from Sangiovese grapes) and Podere Il Caio (Umbria IGT, Sangiovese Merlot) .
The wines will be served in combination with a delicious platter of local cured meats, cheeses and focaccia to enhance the authentic flavours of Umbria. The guide will provide detailed explanations on each label, making the tasting knowledgeable and enjoyable.
The experience will last about 2 hours in total.
