LA CAMINA' DI BARGAZZI ROBERTO
(Winery in )
Provides 1 wine tasting and winery visit from €25.00
La Caminà Winery is located in the picturesque Piacenza hills of the Arda Valley, specifically in the hamlet of Bacedasco Basso, a region known for its rich winemaking tradition. The winery is recognized for cultivating Barbera and Bonarda grapes, which are used to produce Gutturnio, a ruby red wine typical of the area. The estate also grows Ortrugo and Malvasia di Candia grapes, which yield fresh and sparkling white wines, crafted following local traditions.
Founded in the 1950s by Gino Bargazzi, the winery has remained a family-run business, now managed by his son Roberto, who inherited his father’s passion for winemaking. Maintaining the traditional methods passed down through generations, Roberto continues to focus on the importance of craftsmanship while combining it with a modern search for flavor. Visitors are welcomed into the winery to experience the simple yet high-quality wines that reflect the character of the land.
TerraQuilia - La Cantina
(Winery in )
Provides 2 wine tastings and winery visit from €40.00
Born from the love of the land and its fruits, in accordance with the environment, our cellar Terraquilia is set in Guiglia, a village located in a pristine and natural landscape.
The owner, Romano Mattioli, thought and realized his winery for all those who appreciate wine as an expression of a production philosophy rooted in the past. At about 450 m above sea level, the vineyards and the cellar are handled in full compliance with traditions, according to the seasons and to the slow natural rhythms, creating the right balance between vine and wine. Our products interpret the tradition of these lands, inherited by the first winemakers, our ancestors. Without the support of modern technology, they knew how to exploit the seasonal trend to control the fermentation process.
Our constant effort is aimed to limit as many as possible any alterations: first of all in our grapes, both during the harvest (by hand and in small cases) and during crushing (soft crushing), and of course, in every vinification phase in the cellar (for example, the gravity bottling without the use of pumps). As producers of natural wines, we are firmly convinced that it is possible to win this challenge: to give wine lovers a product, which is able to guarantee quality for the right period of time, preserving all flavors and aromas.
Acetaia Sereni
(Winery in )
Provides 8 wine tastings and winery visit from €22.00
Acetaia Sereni, with its roots in the early twentieth century, began producing balsamic vinegar under the care of Santina, who joined the Sereni family through marriage. As a housewife, she would prepare traditional Modena meals for her large family, often using balsamic vinegar as a key condiment. To meet her family's needs, Santina produced a few liters of balsamic vinegar each year, a tradition that has since grown into a renowned family business.
Today, Acetaia Sereni is managed by Pier Luigi Sereni, his wife Elisabetta, and their sons Umberto and Francesco. The family now oversees more than 1,500 casks of balsamic vinegar, aged in prized wooden barrels, and exports their exceptional product worldwide. In addition to their balsamic vinegar, the estate is home to over 1,000 olive trees, from which they produce a delicate and fruity extra-virgin olive oil, once again establishing it as a typical product of Modena.
In 2012, the Sereni family expanded their operations by adding a farm holiday center, Agriturismo Acetaia Sereni, located atop a picturesque hill. Here, guests can enjoy traditional Modena dishes, all enhanced with the estate's balsamic vinegar and olive oil, alongside local wines and produce from the estate's vegetable garden. The agriturismo also offers six comfortable rooms, providing a serene and relaxing stay amidst the beautiful Modena countryside.

Agriturismo San Paolo
(Winery in )
Provides 6 wine tastings and winery visit from €45.00
La tradizione contadina della Famiglia Selmi parte dal lontano 1960 grazie al nonno Gino che fin da piccolo segue i genitori nell'Azienda Agricola. Negli anni 2000 la gestione del Podere viene tramandata ai nipoti, cominciando il ciclo di rinnovamento senza mai dimenticare gli insegnamenti del nonno. Tutto ciò che abbiamo creato in questi anni di attività si racchiude qui: nei nostri Vini. Con otto ettari di terreno tramandati di generazione in generazione, il Podere San Paolo è una testimonianza viva di come gli insegnamenti tradizionali si mescolino con tecniche di produzione innovative. La base essenziale per un buon Vino è un'ottima materia prima ed i Vini dell'Azienda Agricola San Paolo racchiudono perfettamente questo credo. Le uve, coltivate esclusivamente nei nostri vigneti a Castelfranco Emilia, sono raccolte manualmente, preservando la loro integrità dalla vigna all'ingresso in cantina. Questo processo garantisce la conservazione delle migliori caratteristiche delle uve, evitando alterazioni del prodotto e conferendogli una qualità unica e autentica. La nostra realtà non dà vita unicamente al Vino di qualità e all'Aceto Balsamico Tradizionale di Modena D.O.P. ma si dedica anche alla creazione di prodotti unici come la Saba e la Confettura di cipolle di tropea e ABTM. San Paolo è anche un Ristorante d'Eccezione che va a collocare in uno spazio nuovo la definizione che solitamente si associa al termine Agriturismo proponendo una cucina ponte tra la tradizione e l'innovazione. Da noi la territorialità e la genuinità delle materie prime sono impiegate nella ricerca del gusto e nella sperimentazione di nuovi accostamenti. Unisciti a noi in un viaggio attraverso la storia vinicola del Podere San Paolo, dove la passione per la tradizione si unisce alla produzione del nostro Oro nero e Vini straordinari. E' così che si crea il connubio indimenticabile tra la terra e il palato.
