This tour was one of the best things we did on our trip to Italy. It is a stunning old farmhouse compound that the city grew up against. And Nonna was so personal and enriching, with the process for TRADITIONAL balsamic vinegar very educational. I would most highly recommend scheduling this tour if your interests at all lie in this direction.

Very informative and interesting with lots of history! Great detail on the process and differences in the real balsamic vinegar. Would recommend! The passion of the tour guide with her family history with the vinegar made it even more special.

And we’ve done a lot of them, across Europe, Asia, Africa, etc. This was really an unforgettable experience for us. Francesca welcoming us into her home and teaching us so much about the region and local food. The food you make in classes like this is usually pretty good, but here it was amazing - really next level , “oh my god this is good” quality food. It was also a lot of fun to taste a couple Lambrusco, some homemade liqueur, and a couple other snacks in between main courses. Worth every penny and a whole lot more, not just because it’s enough food for lunch and dinner. We will be sending a lot of our friends to come visit Francesca and take her class!
