We loved this wine tasting in a charming, centuries-old room / wine cellar. Norberto is so knowledgeable, and he was also very charming with a great sense of humor. We had five delicious wines along with a generous selection of charcuterie and cheese. One of our favorite activities in our time on Lake Como!
Excellent experience. Matteo was very knowledgeable and patient. Local fare and wine was exvellleny. Never made it to Melzi gardens due to distance which was a bit further than description of experience. A bit expensive for wine and charcuterie only.
Great experience, terrific food and Matteo was an incredible host. Highly recommend and would do again!
Everyone was so friendly and taught me so much about the wine that I was drinking! And they were amazing about adding some extra veggies/olives since I’m vegetarian. Such an overall wonderful experience!! ❤️
The owner and his wife were very nice. The choices of the wines and Proccesso was excellent. They paired with cheeses and meats . My husband doesn’t eat pork so they replaced with beef. Overall a very enjoyable experience. Villa Melzi is included with this event and this was a bonus . V. Melzi is a must see in Bellagio. Beautiful garden and views..❤️❤️
What a wonderful experience! Such a great location and ambiance. Norberto was excellent! My friend and I had a fantastic time and would totally go back. It's a lot of wine though. So be prepared for that. I was expecting tasting pours, and they were more like full pours. Delicious though!
Matteo was a fabulous host. He was knowledgeable and excited about the wine he served us. We couldn’t have asked for more.
The location of the wine cellar was in the most beautiful spot in Bellagio. Super easy to find & the staff was incredible. Matteo was a very knowledgeable sommelier & we ended up tasting 5-7 different wines. The charcuterie was just as incredible! 5 different meats & 3 cheeses. Absolutely must do!!!
Loved the intimate atmosphere ! The champagnes and all of the wines we tasted were excellent. The walk through Villa Melzi gardens was beautiful.
The wine tasting itself was good, I was a little disappointed that two of the wines were champagne and prosecco as I expected mostly reds and whites, but it was interesting to learn the difference between the two. The advert states that you get pasta included in the price, but you only get a cured meat and cheese board included so it is enough to enjoy with the wine but it isn't a substantial meal so be prepared you'll probably still want something for dinner later.
Matteo was GREAT! Provided detail information locations, vintages, grapes, etc, on the wines we tasted. The food was also great! We ended up buying a case of wine! This place is on my list if we return!
Wine tasting in the cellar room with an expert was fabulous. It was a good mix of information about the wine and time alone to enjoy the ambiance and each other. The pizzocheri and charcuterie was a great pairing to the wine.
Wonderful wine and cheese/meat platter but have a few concerns. The wine cellar was lovely but I faced the restrooms so I had a poor view the entire time. The tour advertised pasta and acompliments too but the owner forgot to serve them. We felt that the tour was overpriced and we could have walked in and paid half the price.
Even wine and food was hood. We were totally ignored and left alone afyer pouring the wines… no personal guidance or comments…thought that this was personal and private event ? Redtaurant was full of other guests… Wine quantoty was definitely not glasses just a little bit poured to glass.
Great wine, a lot of nice food, and fantastic environments. The service was also great and we learned a lot about the wine from the Lombardia region
Great experience. Our hosts were friendly and knowledgeable. We enjoyed 5 very ample glasses of wine. Since this was in a wine store ( vs winery) we were able to sample wines from around the region, some we had never heard of. They also provided a great charcuterie platter and a pasta dish, more than enough for lunch. Only hitch was that the hosts had not been aware of the villa tickets, but honestly at that point we did not care.
