Guided eBike Tour Through Nature, History, and Flavors
A unique experience, created in collaboration with Ciclowine, designed to lead you on a discovery of the territory that shapes our wines: the Bolognese Hills. This guided eBike tour will immerse you in the landscapes, history, and culture that define the terroir of our winery, making every sip a true reflection of these lands.
As you ride through rolling hills and vineyards, you’ll admire the stunning Calanchi dell’Abbadessa, a breathtaking landscape overlooking the “Red City,” and be captivated by timeless castles such as Machiavelli and Varignana. Along the way, you’ll explore the medieval ruins of the Church of Settefonti and uncover the rich history of this extraordinary region.
The experience concludes with a guided tasting led by our sommeliers — a sensory journey through the aromas and flavors of our estate wines, paired with signature local delicacies such as our extra virgin olive oil, for a perfect harmony of taste and territory.
