Torre Raone: Vineyard Tradition with Wine Tasting and Guided Tour

Highly recommend Abruzzo Escursioni! Tour was highlight of our trip. Wonderful drive in Abruzzo w/knowledgeable & entertaining guide. Lucio was warm, friendly, speaks excellent English. Very organised, flexible & accommodating as I’ve difficulty walking & tour adjusted for my ability. He told us history of picturesque villages, how geography affects olive trees & wine production. Torre Raone is family owned, organic vineyard-uses plants, like roses to deter pests. Grapes still picked by hand. We had 3 different wine varieties including cerasuolo, a special regional wine. The food and wine were both delicious!

The things we got to experience for the price of this activity is such a steal. The guide Lucio was amazing - welcoming, knowledgeable and always ready to share a story about Abruzzo or some Italian humour. The time spent with wine specialist Karla flew by without us even noticing. All in all, it was a magical experience shared with people who clearly love what they do.
