Travel to Italy - SOLD OUT!

Italian Food and Wine Tour - April 11-18, 2012

Joe Euro of The Wine Seller in Port Townsend, along with The Enthusiastic Traveler, invites you on the 1st culinary journey in the regions of Veneto, Umbria and Tuscany. We will enjoy the best culinary dishes in both of these regions as well as an introduction of wines from Small Vineyard Estates. We will be educated first hand by the winemakers themselves who take us under their wings, and even cook for us. This is a hand-made and intimate tour for food and wine lovers who want to experience Italy's cuisine, history, culture, art and religion, as the Italians do.

This is a very small group journey, with only 10 people besides Susan, Joe, and our guide. We can experience Italy in a much more intimate and spontaneous way when we don't have a group of 18-26 people, like many of our previous trips. (Rick Steves lists their "Extra Small Groups" as 20-24 people.)

• Wine Tastings & Cooking Classes
