Picnic in the Vineyard of Cantina Lilliu in Marmilla

9/1/23

Lilliu Vinyard visit was great! We have done a lot of wine tours in many parts of the world and this ranks up towards the top! What made it great was that the “family” is involved in this operation from top to bottom. One of the owners met us and took us around the wine making operation. They were in the process of picking grapes and let us stay right there and watch the first step of getting the grapes de-stemmed and into the tank. She then took us on a “jeep” tour in a vintage Fiat and showed us around the town, which is beautiful! We then went up to the Vinyard’s on land that had been in her husbands family for many years. We walked around the fields, tasted grapes and received a great education. We saw all their olive trees. Throughout you could see her love for the land, the winemaking process and the pride in what their family does! We then had a great wine tasting with food pairing and some of their olive oil and that was great also. If you want a true wine/Vinyard experience with a hardworking family this is it! Nothing fake or commercial about it, just the real experience. We would recommend this tour to anyone! Also, the drive there was a beautiful drive winding through a lot of beautiful small towns and villages.

PS. We liked the wine so much we shipped some home to the US!

They need to promote themselves more so more people can enjoy their experience!

I wouldn’t change anything on the tour.
