What you'll do

Get into the heart of Ligurian tradition and prepare with your own hands the rea
l pesto with a mortar, just like it has been done for generations in Liguria! During the experience you will discover the secrets of pesto and we will accompany you in a tasting of 3 Cinque Terre wines and extra virgin olive oils, combined with focaccia and cheese, to savor all the authenticity of the products of our territory. And the best part comes later: the pesto you prepare yourself will be used at 12:30 to dress the dumplings that you will enjoy together. From preparation to table, you will be the protagonists! To conclude in sweetness, a fresh limoncino and good chocolate await you. And for those who choose the snack of 15: 00 or 17: 30, nothing more Ligurian than a nice shoe with bread and focaccia, perfect to collect every last taste of our flavors!
