Fresh handmade pasta, delicious cheeses & cold cuts, Italian gelato: that’s the triad of pleasure in Valpolicella. If you’d like to know more about these gastronomic excellences you cannot miss this fantastic experience: a tour thought by foodies for foodies.
You’ll first visit a cheese and salami producer where you’ll be tasting a delicious selection of cold cuts and genuine cheeses accompanied by homemade jams and jellies.
Next, we’ll reach Trattoria Caprini, an institution in our territory for the old tradition of pasta making. Every morning Pierina’s family makes fresh pasta since first years of nineteen hundred. We’ll assist to the magic happening: the staff will show us how it’s possible to prepare the perfect pasta and they’ll share with us their secrets. We’ll taste a selection of three different kinds of pasta and some Valpolicella wine.
To finish our foodie day in a sweet way we’ll visit Marco Scamperle’s gelateria where we’ll be taught how to prepare a creamy Italian artisanal gelato. This part of the tour is really dangerous: why? Marco’s gelato is incredible… so you are warned that after this experience, eating gelato will never be the same!
