Had an amazing experience with fantastic wine & a very knowledgeable guide! While a few self declared wine experts on the tour were more interested in drinking and their own opinions instead of learning about the local winemaking process, our guide handled it all with impressive grace & respect. We booked spontaneously and were accommodated the same day. Highly recommend the tour & the wine!
Beautiful place with really good wine! Our guide did an amazing job and explained everything with passion. She was open for any questions and seemed to have a lot of experience as she could answer all of them. Unfortunately we had to do the tour together with an arrogant group of dutch boys who wanted to get drunk and seemed to know everything better (they didn’t). Our guide handled them professionally and ensured that we had a great time. Thank you!
We absolutely love this winery. Not only is the wine fantastic, but Milena Pepe, the face of the company, has an unmatched passion for her wine. We learned so much on our tour (and we've been to many)! After, we ate lunch and a did a wine tasting. The food is incredible, as is the wine!! The views are also dreamy. Highly recommend.
Wow! My husband and I had a MARVELOUS time! All the employees were very professional, friendly, and treated us so great! Their land is beautiful! The food was absolutely amazing and of course the wine was to! We will be back and will definitely refer you to our friends! Thank you so much for that awesome experience!
We visited Tenuta Cavalier Pepe during our recent visit to Italy in August. All I can say is WOW. The facilities are clean and modern. The vineyards are picturesque and the wines are phenomenal. It's clear that Milena takes immense pride in what she does and it's reflected in the wines and overall experience at the vineyard. I can't recommend visiting them enough. If I only lived closer...
