Discover the winemaking traditions of Manarola together with Alessandro, a young winemaker born in the beautiful village of the Cinque Terre. Start from the center of Manarola and walk with him along the main road leading to the marina, admiring the typical coloured houses and the dry goitre along the way. Then, go up to the cemetery which is located in a picturesque panoramic position, from which you can admire Manarola and also a small glimpse of Corniglia.
Walking along an ancient path of the village in the middle of the gardens, you'll arrive in Alessandro's vineyards and with him, you'll learn to distinguish vines' varieties, the various pruning methods and cultivation of the vineyard. Following the path, you'll pass in front of the parish church of San Lorenzo, to reach Alessandro's cellar where you'll taste his Cinque Terre DOC white wine paired with the typical Ligurian focaccia.
Alessandro is also a member of the Manarola Cinque Terre Foundation, created in 2014 to protect the country's cultural heritage. With your participation in this tour, you'll support the Foundation's project with a small donation.
