Wine tasting in a historic winery in Gallipoli
Ninety minutes at a table in the winery, by appointment.
What you do
People come to Gallipoli for the sea, and rightly so. But it is worth keeping an afternoon for wine: in a historic winery you sit down, hear how the producers work and taste without hurrying.
Ninety minutes gives you time to ask questions, compare glasses and work out what you really like. You leave with a few names worth remembering.
The tasting is by appointment and is held in Italian. If you need another language, just ask me.
By bike
My suggestion is to make the winery the last stop: a day riding towards Gallipoli, then the bike locked with the rental lock and the wine once you have nothing left to pedal.
If you are staying in the area, far from our bases in Lecce, San Foca and Calimera, I can bring the bike to your accommodation for a surcharge based on distance. The route is self-guided, with GPX and a roadbook. And if the sea wins over the bike that day, you can still do the tasting.
