We had some tasting of 2 wines and 2 olive oils paired with local meats / cheeses and my favourite was trying the olive oil with some ice cream and on fruit it was delicious! The view of the vineyard itself was breathtaking and enjoyed the afternoon sitting on the terrace with a glass of wine in hand it…”
