Highlights

The tour is a unique sensorial journey into history, designed to discover the Bosco de’ Medici estate and its winemaking tradition. More than just a tasting, it is a voyage through time, exploring the deep connection between the land, the ancient city of Pompeii, and its food and wine culture. What makes this experience truly special is the revival of ancient Roman winemaking techniques: we produce wines in amphora, just as the Romans once did, bringing back the authentic flavors of the past. Paired with a lunch inspired by original recipes from Ancient Rome, this experience is a real immersion into history — a way to taste, smell, and live the Roman heritage. The tour includes a private guided visit, a tasting of our wines, and a food experience that bridges the past and the present.

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.
