Wine Tasting in Naples: Learn from a Sommelier

A sommelier teaches you to taste wine like a professional, not just drink it.

A wine tasting and food pairing activity in Naples led by a professional sommelier, where you taste native Campanian grape varieties, learn evaluation methods, and play trivia games while eating traditional bruschettas and local snacks. The experience runs 90 minutes and welcomes families: children enjoy juice and the same food while adults taste wine. You can book the standard tasting, a guided version, or one with views of Mount Vesuvius and a pasta course for groups of eight or more.

The experience

You'll spend 90 minutes in the heart of Naples tasting wines the way someone trained to do it actually does: using a structured evaluation sheet to understand what you're drinking instead of just guessing. The sommelier walks you through native Campanian grape varieties, their history, and why they pair so well with the region's food. This is not a passive sit-and-sip. You're learning the vocabulary and the method, so the next time you're in a wine shop or restaurant, you know how to pick a bottle that works.

The tasting comes with three bruschettas, traditional taralli or chips, and wine trivia games that make the whole thing feel more like a dinner party than a lesson. You'll explore common wine myths, play interactive games about wine, and get practical tips on wine etiquette. Families are welcome: children and anyone under 18 can join in, enjoying juice or water with the same generous local food while the adults taste the wines. A small walk through the Gesu square is part of the experience, so you're moving through the neighborhood, not stuck in one room.

If you're booking for a group of eight or more, the experience moves to a terrace with views of Mount Vesuvius and the sea, and a local pasta dish replaces the bruschettas and chips. The guide speaks English, Italian, or Russian depending on your group.
