About this experience

Come all to enjoy the funniest treasure hunt in the vineyards!

After a quick recap of hunting rules, you’ll have a walk all over the farm looking for bottles with clues that will lead you to the craved prize. At the end of the hunt everybody will participate at the Victory Party with our organic wines paired to typical and local food.

In the case the weather doesn't let the treasure hunt, in exchange you will do the winemaker for a day tour.

The children must always be accompanied by their parents or relatives on the treasure hunt.
