What you can expect

  • Guided tour with producers at the historic Casa Benna Winery, owned by the Molinari family since way back in 1916. Learn about the vines in this enchanting corner of Emilia, just one kilometre from the medieval village of Castell'Arquato.
    Discover the hilly vineyards that surround the winery and the production philosophy based on markedly territorial wines with a strong personality.
    Through the various rooms you will understand the various steps that lead the grapes to become wine and the history linked to the birth of each wine. Visit the silent ageing cellar and its splendid oak barrels where the fine wines rest.
    At the end of the visit, at the tasting room, savour with the producers the full range of Colli Piacentini wines, discover their blends, characteristics and accompaniments to best appreciate them.
    Along with the wines, a board of PDO Piacentini cured meats and shavings of Grana Padano cheese will also be provided.
    The activity takes place entirely on the premises of Casa Benna in Case Sparse Benna.
    At the end of the activity it will be possible to buy the wines tasted.
