This was the most special experience in wine tasting ever. We ended up being the only people on the tour so the private experience was beyond incredible. Franco and Giuseppe were the most hospitable hosts and left us with a wonderful impression of Sardinia. It felt like we were visiting old friends and hanging out with wine and charcuterie in their home. We will always remember this intimate wine tour and tasting with generous company and it will be the level that we compare all future wine tours to.

authentic and with heart

Giuseppe was an excellent and gracious host and his passion was extremely evident in all that he does. I was amazed at all that he has accomplished on this plot of land. We tasted some very rare wine and we even had some of his homemade grappa at the end. The tour guide took and shared some great photos during our tour that we are very thankful to have now.

Wonderful wine tour!

Carla_C, May 2023

What a great wine tour! We were taken to the vineyards of Giuseppe Lecis. Giuseppe explained the process of how he makes his wine and was super proud of his product and his family history in winemaking. The star of the show was, other than the wine, was Spank. The cutest little dog that helped on the tour. After the tour, we enjoyed some wine, some amazing cheese, prosciutto, and homemade jams. I highly recommend this tour!

This was a wonderful experience. My husband and I were lucky enough to be the only people on the tour that day. We had a beautiful time touring the winery (which is in a lovely location) and then had a meal and plenty of wine with Giuseppe and Franco.

Quality Wine

Stewart_M, Apr 2023

This was a highly enjoyable trip run by the extremely charming Franco who endeavoured to ensure that everyone was having a great time. There was a great deal of pride shown by the vineyard owner who wanted his quality product enjoyed in a friendly and informative tour. The quality of the food provided during the tasting session could only be bettered by the lovely wine that washed it down. A highly recommended tour!!!

Response from Host, May 2023

grazie!! hope to see you again 😊

Was Made to Feel Right at Home...Really Nice

Kenneth_K, Nov 2022

Really enjoyed talking to winemaker. I asked him a ton of questions. Probably exhausted him a bit but he was so kind that he tried to explain everything even though English was not his first language. Not only were the wines delicious but so were the other things we tried such as the cheese, a sweet grape sauce called Saba and some of the best olive oil and balsamic vinegar I have ever tried.

My wife, two daughters, and I really enjoyed the wine tour as well as the bonus of seeing a 1000-year-old church. Franco our tour guide, our winemaker host, and his adorable dog spent the entire time with us -- fantastic wine, antipasti, and conversation. Couldn't ask for a better time!

Whowwwww!!! Thanks so much, beautiful family and wonderful time together!! 🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🔝🔝🔝

Come and meet Giuseppe the vintner

Joshua_C, May 2022

The tour did exactly as it said it would in the description. Our host, Franco, was a warm and energetic personality who put the group at ease and broke the ice during the trip to our destination. The vintner who showed us his vineyard and bottling facilities was a lovely and engaging man (Giuseppe) and he was accompanied by his magnetic and equally engaging young son; this turned out to be incredibly fortuitous as we have two children of our own (at similar ages - 4 & 5) and the children played together while we sat down to taste Giuseppe’s wines and sample local produce, all of which came from Giuseppe’s farm or local friends. The aged balsamic vinegar that Giuseppe makes was absolutely delicious, as was his homemade sweet grape relish, which I’ve never had anything like before. We sat together and talked, asking questions and generally being convivial (occasionally keeping the kids in check) for about 60-90 mins. We tasted Canonau, Vermentino, Mirto and grappa (technically called barricata as it had been aged in oak!) and left, having had a fantastic experience with new friends.
