Visit to Fontechiara
A small, young winery, but very nice and well-organized. It starts with a short tour of the labs/cellar and then you move to the room dedicated to the tastings.
There are various tasting packages, depending on how many wines you want to taste, accompanied by local products. Wines explained very well by the owner. Besides the wines, you can also find products made with the waste from the must. A very nice idea for a different kind of outing.
I recommend the 3-wine tasting.

Small winery, big character
Fontechiara is a small family-run winery, but it offers a remarkable variety of wines, all crafted with the utmost attention to detail. During the visit we participated in a pleasant tasting, accompanied by samples of local products like cured meats and cheeses, of excellent quality and perfectly paired with the wines.
Among the bottles offered, I also chose to buy an ancestral method wine, which I haven't tasted yet but which shows great promise. What particularly struck me was also the presence of a craft beer made with grape pomace, really interesting for those who love the crossover between the brewing and winemaking worlds.
The atmosphere is warm, welcoming, and authentic: you can feel the passion and pride for their work. A recommended stop for those who want to have a genuine experience in the heart of the region.

Wine tasting
The winery whilst small in production, provided a fantastic experience of a tour of the cellar, introduction to all the wines and products that they sell and the actual tasting of several wines with different foods, including horse and donkey cured meats which were delicous. The hosts were informative and attentive and what made it unique, for me, was that they accepted solo travelers for bookings, something others do not cater for.
The signs as to where to park could be clearer on the entry.
