Tasting and Tour of Local Wines and Tastes at Cantina D'Erasmo
A guided journey through organic viticulture, regional flavors, and the winemaking heritage of the Piceno hills.
This Marche wine tasting experience invites you into the heart of Cantina D'Erasmo, an organic winery in the Piceno region where a young oenologist and agronomist opens his cellar and shares the story behind each bottle. Over two hours, guests move from vineyard panorama to barrique cellar and finish at a table set with native wines and regional specialties.
The Piceno territory of Marche has long been shaped by its agricultural traditions, and Cantina D'Erasmo reflects that continuity. The estate has practiced organic farming since the 1980s, blending respect for the land with a forward-looking approach to winemaking that gives each vintage a distinct character.
Guests are welcomed directly by the owner, whose personal narration brings context and warmth to every step of the visit. The experience moves at a relaxed pace, making it suitable for curious beginners and seasoned wine enthusiasts alike.
The tasting portion pairs three DOC and IGT wines from the estate with a curated selection of local cold cuts, cheeses, and regional delicacies. It is an authentic encounter with the flavors that define this corner of central Italy.
