Itinerary
After a 60-minute drive from La Spezia, we'll arrive in the countryside just east of Lucca, in the Montecarlo di Lucca wine region. Fattoria Carmignani is a family-run boutique winery, a simple but classic country estate that has been producing quality wines with love for decades. The Carmignani family has been winemakers in this area since 1386. The cooking lesson is hands-on and lasts 3 hours. It will be followed by a lunch (approx. 2 hours) of the dishes you've prepared. A guided tasting of seven of the estate's wines will accompany the meal. A walk through the vineyards with the winemaker completes the experience. Transportation is included and the drive back to port lasts about 60 minutes.
Meeting and pickup
You must TAKE THE SHUTTLE from the ship to the area where private drivers are waiting outside the port (a short drive). Your driver will be there holding a sign with your name on it.
