The travel: Our Wine and Cook retreat is located in two different regions and two very unknown areas, Maremma, Tuscany and Lentini, Sicily. Why these areas? Well, in Maremma, we can still find cellars and recipes where the relationship between nature and humans is based on respect and ancient traditions. In Sicily, you will find a beautiful region with so much to offer in the world of food and wine. You will discover a small lovely village, taste wine under the volcano, and discover many traditions that will lead you to return to this island time and time again, because you will never have enough of it! Two different unusual journeys within two different lands. Discover and unveil unknown destinations that preserve the natural method to make quality wine and food, all while respecting the territory behind it.
The stay: In both Sicily and Maremma, stay at an eco-sustainable farm, which uses renewable energy and grows produce organically. Enjoy orange, lemon and olive groves during your stay.
The Learn: We need to protect wisdom and preserve the flavours and values of the land. You will learn how to cook the food and how important it is to know how to make it to preserve the territory. Local traditions are essential, and following and practising them is paramount to learning how to cook and understand which product to use. Our chefs are incredibly talented and will bring back ancient recipes. They will also focus on how important it is to understand how to cook for our well-being, and why we have to choose specific ingredients for our well-being and the planet Earth.
You can choose between the Cook and Wine Retreat in Sicily, or Cook and Wine Retreat in Maremma or if you have time both!
