About this tour

Spend eight hours at Cortecorbo, a family-owned vineyard in Irpinia's celebrated wine region, learning winemaking from the proprietor before heading to the kitchen. You'll shape and bake pizza over a wood fire, then settle in for a leisurely lunch where each course pairs thoughtfully with six estate wines, anchored by the structured, age-worthy Taurasi DOCG. Transport, tastings, and coffee included. Best suited to those wanting genuine hospitality rather than polished tourism.

Highlights

  • Vineyard and cellar tour led by resident winemaker
  • Wood-fired pizza preparation in traditional home style
  • Six-wine tasting featuring Taurasi DOCG
  • Long lunch with wine-food pairing strategy
  • Private transport from pickup point
  • Wheelchair accessible throughout

What to expect

Arrival brings a welcome and walk through working vineyards and production spaces where you'll hear how this small operation fits into Southern Italy's winemaking landscape. The cooking segment is genuinely hands-on: you'll handle dough and fire rather than watch. Lunch unfolds over hours at a countryside table. Each plate arrives with context—why this wine follows that dish. Expect conversation, not instruction; the winemaker's family sets the tempo. Bring appetite and openness to pace.

Good to know

Eight hours total; plan the day around meal timing. Wear closed shoes for vineyard walking. The wood-fired oven gets hot but the experience is accessible for most fitness levels. Alcohol is central, so arrange driving beforehand. Infants and children can attend; high chairs and prams available.
