Sorrento has ample amounts of sun and sand, but those in the know come for the wine. Limoncello might have been the boozy beverage of choice for decades in the region, but the wine industry has made a comeback since then. The Campania region boasts remarkable food and wine and this 2-hour guided tasting tour shows it all off.
Meet your guide and walk the streets to the first stop. Here, sample two different wines, as the guide gives an overview of the vino landscape of Campania. Learn about how to properly pair food and wine. While the most famous wine to come out of Campania is the red Taurasi, the crisp whites from the region pair excellently with much of the seafood that comes from the coast around Sorrento.
On the second stop, sample four different wines paired with stuzzichini. Some of the food includes fresh and aged cheeses, delicious grilled vegetable antipasti, eggplant parmigiana and a classic Neapolitan potato cake with prosciutto ham.
In addition, sample difference DOP balsamic vinegars from Modena (and learn the process of how it is made) and taste different cold-pressed olive oils, one of which is infused fragrant lemons of Sorrento.
