We spent a wonderful week here. Anna, Mattia and Gulia are great hosts. The rooms are modern and super clean. The breakfast is great. Mattia introduced us to the winery and the wines - great. There were always great tips for things to do and restaurants in the area. We would love to come back and can only recommend it.

I had a wine tasting at Open Cellars in November. A beautiful terrace where you can admire the vineyards and the colours of this season. The two very friendly brothers told us the history of the winery and its neighbours with a short but pleasant tour. They also recommended some beautiful places to continue the day!

Small winery in the homeland of Schiopettino di Prepotto, a beautiful discovery. The wines are an expression of authenticity, high quality and passion, you absolutely have to try their Schiopettino and Merlot Riserva!
