Tucked away in the sleepy countryside of Serrara Fontana, the Cenatiempo vineyard is an oasis of pleasure where visitors can relax in the tranquil surroundings while sampling and learning about some of Ischia's best wines. Our tours are conducted by an amiable and knowledgeable host who speaks excellent English and is happy to fill you with her enthusiasm for the wines that her company produces and the process that goes into making them.
With a lovely, relaxing atmosphere, the tours start outside in the vineyards themselves where our guide will explain to you all of the different elements that go into the careful process of creating these excellent wines. The vineyards are set in the stunning Serrara Fontana countryside and from the highest levels you can enjoy some spectacular panoramic views across to the island of Capri in the distance.
After visiting the vineyard the tour moves over to the incredible cantina which has been around since the 18th century and still contains remnants of how wine was produced hundreds of years ago. As you walk round the cantina the guide explains to you the differences between the ancient and modern techniques, sharing with you her vast and passionate knowledge of viticulture. The insight and anecdotes that the guide shares are fascinating and really help you to understand the amount of diligent work that goes into creating the bottled product that we all enjoy.
The final and probably most important part of the tour is of course the tasting! The guide takes you to a lovely, peaceful garden area full of colorful flowers with bench tables and parasols to protect you from the sun. There you will try a selection of some of the best wines while being served some delicious local delicacies that complement the wines and make sure you have everything you need to make your experience an unforgettable one. The tours start around 11:30am/12pm and carry on right through the lunch period until around 2:30pm or even later if you're really enjoying yourselves and would like to carry on enjoying the ambience and the wines.
The Cenatiempo tours are a really great way to enhance your appreciation and enjoyment of Ischia during your holiday and the guide's sunny and friendly personality makes sure you always feel comfortable and at home in her presence.
