2Not for solo travellers
If travelling solo, this is NOT for you. In reality it’s a light lunch at a table on your own with 4 very small glasses of wine . Description is not incorrect, but I was under the impression that I’d be seated at a mixed table, with tasting notes for each wine, to be able to discuss and compare. All staff were friendly but it’s clearly not their job to entertain guests, I’m used to eating alone on holiday, but that’s after a busy day doing other things where I can watch the world go by - this was very awkward.
4Fun but maybe not worth for the price
The tour of the vineyard was very fun and the guide, Roberto was very good. The food itself was a bit disappointing. It wasn't bad but it was nothing special. The location was beautiful, I think if the food was improved it would be a 5* experience. Not great value for money and the location is quite far from the centre of pompei.
5Enjoyable Experience!
Had a great experience tasting wine and the lunch was very good- it was beautiful scenery and nice to sit under the canapé of grapes!
5Outstanding Wines, Food and Hospitality
We had an amazing wine tasting experience at Bosco de Medici, perfectly combined with a delicious lunch. Our sommelier, Anthony, also known as "Sir King", made the afternoon truly unforgettable. His passion, knowledge, and warm hospitality turned the tasting into a real experience. As a wonderful surprise, he also treated us to a delicious limoncello and a local apple liqueur. We highly recommend Bosco de Medici to anyone looking for great wines, excellent food, and outstanding hospitality. Thank you for an unforgettable afternoon!
5Bosco de’Medicii wine tour and lunch
Excellent experience. Guiseppe was the GOAT for the wine tour at Bosco de’Medici
5An Amazing Vineyard Escape!
We had SUCH an amazing experience at this winery. We knew it would be fun but the people truly made this one of the best experiences of our Italy trip. First, we started off with a private guided tour of the vineyard from Pepe. He was hilarious, knowledgeable, and personable. The golf cart was a very nice touch and helped us see the property while also beating the heat. Then, we went to the restaurant for the wine tasting and three course lunch. Vincenzo and Emmanuel were both WONDERFUL, and even treated us to some grappa on the house. We really cannot recommend this winery enough. The ambiance is beautiful, the wine is divine, and most of all - the people make it a 10/10 experience.

About Pompeii
Pompeii is a Roman town near Naples frozen in ash when Mount Vesuvius erupted in AD 79, with streets, villas and frescoes preserved beneath the volcano.
Pompeii was a thriving Roman town when Vesuvius buried it under ash and pumice in AD 79. Excavation, begun in the eighteenth century, has uncovered paved streets with stepping stones, shops, bakeries, bathhouses and the forum. The amphitheatre, among the oldest Roman ones to survive, and the grand House of the Faun show the range of life, and plaster casts of the dead record the final moments of some residents.
Top-ranked sights in Pompeii: Pompeii Archaeological Site, Stabian Baths (Terme Stabiane), Via dell’Abbondanza.
