PIPETTE MAGAZINE

the indie mag about natural wines

Since 2019, we have offered boutique tours that bring a small group to natural wineries in Slovenia and Italy. We currently offer a capstone, week-long “Central Italy” group tour (next one tentatively in May 2026), and custom “microtours” in Central Italy, Sicily, and elsewhere throughout the year.

Interested in joining us? Need a custom itinerary for your upcoming trip to Italy? Please fill out the form below and we will offer you a 15-minute video chat to discuss your interests.

Some highlights from the Central Italy group tour:

  • Daily visits to natural wine producers including hands-on winery and vineyard experiences to demonstrate the practical realities of organic and biodynamic viticulture and natural winemaking

  • Meals and accommodations at wineries and picnics in vineyards to experience the ultimate pairings

  • A visit to Tuscan thermal baths

  • Pasta-making class led by women in their cooperatively-run osteria

  • In-depth discussion about natural wine in Italy, vitictulture, and winemaking (as well as Italian-English translation as needed) with your expert guide

  • Transportation in a spacious, air-conditioned vehicle with an experienced, professional driver (with Italian disco playlists for the right moments)

  • Daily personal time for walks and reflection
