Family cooking class

About this tour

A three-hour Italian cooking class where families learn to hand-roll pasta and prepare traditional dishes using certified organic, locally sourced ingredients. You'll work in a kitchen stocked with estate-grown produce and extra virgin olive oil, then sit down to eat what you've made alongside wine and oil tastings. The instructor champions minimal processing and in-house production—no shortcuts, no supermarket staples. Gluten-free and children-focused menus available on request.

Highlights

• Hand-roll two distinct pasta shapes from scratch
• Prepare an Italian dessert using organic house-made ingredients
• Taste wines and olive oils from the property
• Visit the working farm behind the kitchen
• Lunch included—eat dishes you cooked
• Gluten-free or kids-only class options

What to expect

You'll start at the counter learning dough consistency and hand techniques for two pasta varieties. The instructor guides you through assembly without fuss—this is practical cooking, not performance. Midway through, take a stroll around the farm to see where your lunch ingredients originated. Back in the kitchen, finish your dessert while the pasta cooks. You'll sit together to eat, with wine and oil tastings woven through the meal. Three hours moves quickly but never feels rushed.
