Tenuta Mainardi

This family-run farmhouse truly deserves its due! Not only for the location, which lets you breathe the true essence of Cilento, or for the cuisine, which lets you savor the authentic flavors of this land, but above all for the friendliness, kindness, and helpfulness of the people who work there, who, from the moment you cross the threshold, have only one goal: to make you feel like part of the family!

What an experience! Marco and his family were kind enough to do a last minute tour and lunch for myself and my family while we were on holiday in Italy. Marco and his family were so lovely and guided us around the vineyard and put on a feast full of local cuisine! It was very personal and we had the best day learning about the vineyard and the family. We feel very lucky to have found Tenuta Mainardi!

Marco and his family are exceptional. We spent a beautiful day on the estate and felt truly at home. Tour of the vineyard, cooking class, wine tasting and finally an excellent lunch. Authentic Cilento cuisine of the highest level and quality wine. Thank you for the experience, we recommend it and will definitely come back!

Immersed in the greenery, Tenuta Mainardi was a pleasant surprise. Colors and scents characterize the atmosphere you breathe on the farm. Marco's masterful representation of the various dishes, their origin and history is the right presentation of the typical dishes of the local tradition; dishes refined by Mother Rocchina's skill in the kitchen. Everything is combined with the quality and authenticity of the 0 km raw materials, making the simple gastronomic experience a journey of discovery. Pure air, excellent food, good company and relaxation? So ready to set off towards Aquara, destination Tenuta Mainardi!

While I wait to return to visit the cellar and vineyards, I can only praise this family-run winery. Typical local cuisine with genuine ingredients and friendly staff. It's worth driving a few extra miles to spend the night in a place like this, completely relaxed.

This is a window! Just to say that some places are difficult to tell. Tenuta Mainardi is an experience, a must that will be a memory for the rest of your life. Passion, emotions, beauty and flavors... A wow factor that is a true essence of the Cilento area. ❤️🌻

All authentic flavours from KM 0 offered in a welcoming atmosphere. Hidden in a valley 30 minutes from the coast you can find this jewel. Through an open space you can have contact with the mother whilst she is preparing the delicious courses. Only local ingredients are used mostly from own grounds and the recipes have been passed between the generations. The dishes are accompanied by homemade biological wine. To keep the genuine flavour of the grapes the son has chosen not to use oak barrels for the red wine, wonderful. We love to go back to this place.

Took a bit to drive there through tough roads but was well worth it. Nice Villa, surrounded by vineyards, with food matching the environment. The family is very nice and helpful, and all the dishes we tasted were delicious.

Lovely little place, there is the possibility to visit the kitchen while the food is cooking. The wine they produce is fantastic. The owners are simple and straightforward people. The food is zero km away, of course you can't expect to eat what you like because you are only offered fresh local products... A few words from good connoisseurs. Exceptional value for money, we spent very little considering the quality of the food and especially the wine which alone deserved the price paid. Try it to believe it!!!
