• 3Ok experience

  Tasting included four local wines and some appetizers. It was just me and my husband. It was fairly basic and flat. Our host knew about the region, gave us the spiel, poured then walked away to let us taste on our own. He often talked over me. For some reason we were hidden away in the back kind of dingy store room and not the super cute (also empty so plenty of room) restaurant out front. That would’ve been a nicer experience. I’d suggest a little more banter regarding the wines, grapes history etc

• 5Lovely small intimate wine tasting

  A lovely wine tasting of 4 wines (a white, a rosé and two reds) in a quaint and intimate wine bar café/bistro. The wines are from the same producer, so you get a great example and overview of some local wines, paired with some local food snacks. It’s a 90 minute wine tasting and a great introduction to anyone unfamiliar with Puglia wine grape varieties. The host was very knowledgable and took his time to explain each wine in detail and which wine to pair with each of the snacks. These included 3 local cheeses, bruschetta topped with tomatoes, olives, capers, herbs, olive oil, a spicy sausage on taralli, followed by sweet almond biscuits. The tasting experience is available from 12 noon to 6:30pm Tuesday to Sunday. The wine bar is also a bistro, so you could easily have lunch/dinner here, as well it being a great stop for a glass/bottle of wine.

• 5Highly enjoyable tasting experience

  Excellent experience. The owner/operator took us through the tasting experience, tasting four regional wines with an overview of how they are made and local food to accompany each wine. Very enjoyable 90 minutes.

About Lecce

Lecce is a Baroque city in Italy's heel, built in honey-coloured limestone and carved with flowers, animals and saints on every façade.

Lecce's soft local limestone could be carved like wood, and the architects of the seventeenth century used it to cover churches and palaces in garlands, cherubs, animals and plants, a style called Leccese Baroque. The Basilica of Santa Croce has the richest façade, and the Piazza del Duomo is a closed square with a campanile. A Roman amphitheatre lies half uncovered in Piazza Sant'Oronzo, and the city is sometimes called the Florence of the South.

Top-ranked sights in Lecce: Lecce Basilica of Santa Croce (Basilica Di Santa Croce), Lecce Roman Amphitheatre (Anfiteatro Romano di Lecce), Porta Napoli.
