We had difficulty in finding the final location & Rosa was very helpful as she came out in her car to get us. We found the experience that afternoon to be excellent as Rosa & her husband were wonderful hosts and would highly recommend this tour.

Amazing wine experience

The Melillo family couldn't have been more welcoming. It was lovely to see a small, authentic family run winery and farm. They were knowledgeable and happy to show us the whole process. The wines were delicious! Highly recommended!
