In the "Experiences" section you will find only few examples of food and wine experiences, available with Le strade del gusto.

All the tours and activities can be personalized based on your needs and requirements.

Would you like to visit one or more wineries in particular? Would you like to attend traditional Sardinian cooking classes? Would you like to make cheese with your own hands?

Starting from the month of May you can also find food and wine experiences online to live in the comfortable and safe environment of your home.

Become a wine expert with a Sommelier

Our experience will begin with a nice chat during which I will try to probe your knowledge of the wine world and your preferences and tastes (for example, do you like whites or reds?). Then with the support of educational material (just a chart) and a glass of wine I will teach you the basic rules of tasting and how you can recognize the characteristics of each wine. So you will need to have a wine (possibly Italian) of which you will send me a photo before starting the experience so that you can describe it remotely. Then we will see together the basic rules for combining food and wine and I will reveal some small secrets that will help you make the right choice of wine for your dinners and aperitifs with family and friends. After this experience, the wine will have no more secrets for you. In the eyes of your friends you will become wine expert, without having attended a sommelier course! The experience will take place in the comfortable and safe environment of your home or in the place you prefer. You will not need to move (except to go and buy a wine to taste). You will be able to stay in slippers and comfortably seated on your sofa. I too will be at home, in my wonderful Sardinia, the second largest island in the Mediterranean.
