Cooking classes take place in a charming 13th century manor situated on a sixty-hectare estate, surrounded by vineyards and a magnificent park on the gentle slopes of the Collio hills, one of Italy's finest wine-growing locations, only about one-hour drive from Venice. The atmosphere is lovely and peaceful, just the perfect location to enjoy a leisurely vacation mixed with an unforgettable cooking experience.
The estate also houses a renowned winery producing prized D.O.C. red and white wines and an excellent grappa. The cellar, which can be reached by descending seventy steps underground, was a former military bunker. It was built at the end of the 30's and used during the Second World War as a bomb shelter. It crosses the heart of the castle from east to west and it is the pride of the estate.
