Overview

Guidekin summary

A sit-down tasting rather than a walk: three glasses of Pignoletto and Sangiovese poured by a sommelier, plates of mortadella, Parmigiano Reggiano, local cheese, balsamic and oils, and a wine quiz to go with them. It is over in well under an hour, and alcohol is served to adults only. 4.96 at €29 per person.
