Wine Red Tour - On the Murgian Road
murgian ROAD ITINERARY
BRIEF DESCRIPTION
4 days/3 nights
Availability: from May to Sept 2024
Narrow streets, palaces, courtyards and churches: getting lost in Bari is the best way to fully embrace the charm of the city and discover its history step by step. Bari is a combination of energy, beauty and culture to be discovered, alley after alley. From Bari you will get to know its hinterland such as Castel Del Monte and Gravina di Puglia.
This tour is for those who want to fill up on emotions and join not a simple guided tour, but an immersive and engaging experience such as the one that surrounds the tastings of native wines.
Ideal for gourmets who appreciate local cuisine and the excellence of typical products but also for younger people who want to discover urban spaces dedicated to design.
In this itinerary we invite you to get to know the hinterland of Bari on a food and wine tour.
Welcome in Italy! Independent transfer to your accommodation in Bari.
Accommodation and overnight in Bari.
Meet your driver in the hotel lobby for transfer to Gravina.
It rises between two natural canyons. It takes name from the Gravine which, like the Sassi of Matera, are very present in this area, rich in rock settlements.
Today you will start with visiting an historic winery.
The history of the company must be contextualized in a unique territory rightly called, “THE OTHER PUGLIA”.
Anyone speaking of our Region obviously thinks of its coasts, the sea, the sun and its powerful but often somewhat rough wines. Instead, our land, our Puglia, is something different, unexpected! Rolling hills called MURGE, an evocative word that means STONE. Cool and temperate climate, subsoil rich in minerals and karst springs! Uncontaminated woods and pastures make it a small paradise, inhabited by man since prehistoric times, where the cultivation of vines dates back to over 2,500 years ago.
Today you will start the tour with a visit to the cellar, you will continue with a walk in one of the most exclusive vineyards of the cellar and you will continue tasting 3 of the most representative wines of the company.
At the end of the visit to the cellars with tasting, lunch in a restaurant in Gravina di Puglia.
After this experience, return to the hotel.
