The Frascati Wine Tour from Rome is a wine tasting tour that transports you from the Eternal city to a tranquil hillside villa encircled by vineyards and olive groves in the Frascati countryside. Grasp Italy's essence from the hilltops of the famed Castelli Romani (Roman Castles) as you experience history and enjoy a tour of the senses.

This is the only tour of its kind in Rome, visiting one of the oldest and most beautiful vineyards in the Frascati region. The 200 acres of vines surrounding 17th century architecture and 3rd century caverns lined with Acacia and French Oak barrels are treasures of one of Italy's oldest and most distinguished noble families, the Pallavicini.

Your expert guide illustrates the local wine producing methods from antiquity to modern day and reveals Imperial Rome as the cradle of wine culture, where the Nectar of the Gods went from a status symbol of the elite to a pleasure enjoyed by all. This enticing voyage of the senses concludes with a guided tasting of a special selection of Pallavicini's featured wines and fresh pressed olive oil.

Excellent guide, very kind and interesting. I recommend this tour. Martine

Our guide was fantastic! She was friendly and knowledgeable about the wine-making process. The wine was delicious. And as we returned to the city she took the time to walk through the bus and answer questions about other tourist attractions in Rome. I highly recommend this wine-tasting tour! Julie
