Private Winery Experience with Tasting & Food Pairing, Sorrento

Meet your driver outside your hotel and settle in for an approximate 75-minute drive over hillside roads and through forested landscapes until you reach the cliffside town of Furore along the glittering Tyrrhenian Sea, and your destination: Marisa Cuomo Winery. Meet the winemakers who will show you around the steep, terraced gardens and specialized cellars. Here, you'll learn how grapes flourish in this extreme cliff-clinging environment, discover the methods that transform fruit into wine, and venture below ground to check out the barrels where the aging process transpires.

You'll then head over to a family-run osteria, connected to the winery, where a relaxed setting and sweeping Amalfi Coast views set the stage for a memorable wine-tasting experience. This classic Italian eatery highlights fresh, seasonal ingredients across a four-course meal—typically starting with a caponata appetizer, followed by ndunderi (ricotta gnocchi), often considered one of the world's oldest pasta types. A formaggi course with local cheeses, jams, and bread comes next, before a light, deconstructed millefeuille with custard and fruit rounds things out on a sweet note.

Each of the first three courses is thoughtfully paired with a locally produced wine, giving you a true taste of the Amalfi Coast in every sip. You might find a crisp rosato (Italian rosé) balancing the richness of the pasta or a bright white enhancing the tang of the vegetable dishes—simple pairings that work beautifully together. Take a moment to savor the setting (and maybe snap a few photos from the balcony) before rejoining your driver for a relaxed return to Sorrento.
