Cathedral well worth seeing
Modern wine cellar with a fantastic guide who explained everything very personally and with great dedication. Very informative for me as a sommelier in training. Thanks also to our guide for the evening restaurant tip in Alba afterwards. We will definitely be back!

Romantic Cellars
It was a good, interesting tour. Varied with the film scenes on the ceiling! The woman who led the tour was hard to understand, her voice was not loud enough and her English was not the best either.
I don't understand that there is no German-language tour, more than half of the participants were native German speakers. The tasting was good, the wines and the explanations.

Unique and captivating
We visited the Bosca Underground Cathedrals and were truly fascinated by them. The experience was very captivating: the tour, enriched with music and light displays, creates a unique and engaging atmosphere. The final tasting was also excellent, with high-quality products and an interesting explanation. An experience we absolutely recommend to those who love wine and want to experience something special.

Solid tasting with drawbacks
Bosca's "Underground Cathedrals visit and tasting" is a solid tasting.
At the end of the tour, three selected Spumante are offered for tasting, two of which are of the rather cheaper variety.
Unfortunately, the tour places too little focus on the impressive architecture and history of the cathedrals.
Those who are particularly interested in the architecture and the atmosphere could be somewhat disappointed here, not least because of the not-so-cheap fee.
