Join us for a delightful and relaxing morning at one of the region's finest vineyards! We invite our guests to enjoy a unique opportunity to engage in grape harvesting, afterward, everyone returns to the winery with the freshly picked grapes and has the opportunity to observe the pressing process and learn about the first steps of winemaking, with explanations from the staff and actively participating. Then we visit the winery and enjoy a wine tasting of 6 of their wines, paired with typical Umbrian specialties (light lunch) with the bride and groom as we celebrate love, laughter, and the finer things in life.

Overview of Todi, Italy
Just a stone's throw from Borgo Petroro lies Todi, a charming medieval hilltop town that feels as though it’s been frozen in time. Founded by the ancient Umbri people, Todi is perched high above the Tiber River, offering some of the most breathtaking, panoramic views in all of central Italy.
We encourage you to get lost in its winding, narrow streets and discover its rich cultural heritage. Highlights of the town include:
Piazza del Popolo: One of Italy’s most beautiful medieval squares, home to the historic Palazzo del Popolo.
The Cathedral of San Fortunato: A stunning example of Gothic architecture with an incredible vista.
Local Charm: Todi is famous for its "slow life" atmosphere, perfect for a midday espresso or a quiet afternoon wandering the ancient stone walls.
Historical Significance
Ancient Origins: Todi was originally known as Tuder and served as an Etruscan fortress before becoming a Roman ally.
Cultural Heritage: The town is known for its well-preserved historical monuments, including an Etruscan necropolis, a Roman amphitheater, and medieval town walls.
Notable Figures: Todi is the birthplace of the Franciscan poet Jacopone da Todi and was home to the family of Roman Emperor Trajan.
Top 3 Things to Do in Todi
1. Experience Piazza del Popolo
Often cited as one of the most beautiful medieval squares in Italy, this is the heart of the city. Take a moment to admire the Palazzo del Popolo and the Cathedral of San Fortunato, or simply grab a table at a local café to enjoy a cappuccino and soak in the historic atmosphere.
2. Climb the Bell Tower of San Fortunato
For the best views of the Umbrian countryside, head to the Church of San Fortunato. If you're feeling adventurous, you can climb the bell tower for a 360-degree vista of the silvery olive groves and rolling hills surrounding the town.
3. Discover the Roman Cisterns (Cisterne Romane)
Hidden beneath the Piazza del Popolo is a fascinating network of ancient Roman cisterns. Built over 2,000 years ago, these underground chambers are an incredible way to see the "layers" of history that make Todi so unique
Activities
Exploring Narrow Streets: Visitors can wander through Todi's picturesque streets filled with stone houses and medieval architecture.
Local Cuisine: Enjoy traditional Italian meals at local restaurants and gelaterias.
A Couple Pro Tips:
The Best View: For the most iconic photo of the trip, suggest guests visit the Tempio di Santa Maria della Consolazione at the foot of the hill before driving up into the town center.
Parking: Todi is largely a pedestrian zone. Remind guests to use the Porta Orvietana car park and take the funicular (inclined elevator) up into the heart of the city.
Dining: If you find yourself in town for a leisurely lunch, look for a restaurant with a terrace view—there is nothing quite like dining overlooking the Tiber Valley!
