About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- jacobsU5565HK0 contributionsOutstanding and Very KnowledgeableMy wife and I did the wine and cheese tasting as a part of our honeymoon while we were in Rome and it was great! Being avid wine connoisseurs, we were looking forward to the different styles of wine and cheese pairings along with the understanding of wine regions in Italy, and this tasting did not let us down! I would recommend VinoRoma to any friends for family visiting in the future. If your an advanced wine lover or just getting started, they will treat you right!Written October 15, 2024
- Diane R0 contributionsThank you Maurizio. A vineyard with a view!We booked a private vineyard tour with Maurizio, a partner of VinoRoma. I made contact with Maurizio as I spotted on the website they offered private tours. This was a special birthday present while we were in Rome. We didn’t have time for a full day but Maurizio suggested a morning excursion to one vineyard. We had arrived late the night before so a relaxing start sounded a very good plan. We were taken to an idyllic low intervention vineyard around 30 minutes or so from the city centre. We were welcomed by Maria, the co-owner of the vineyard. We stood and gazed at the view and Maria told us about the history of the vines and the changes they had made to work biodynamically without pesticides. We walked around the vineyard a little and were shown the Roman tunnels now used for the wine. We are not in any way wine experts, just interested and this was fascinating to appreciate the history and the vision of this vineyard. We sat at a table with a beautiful view and Maria brought out cheese, salami and her last bottle of her homemade olive oil, together with bread and snacks. I have included some pictures. I have to say thank you so much to Maurizio who made this all possible. It was a wonderful start to our holiday. Thank you to Maria for her hospitality and also to the driver that made it possible for Maurizio to chat to us without having to pay attention to the road! Absolutely 5 star rating! We were only sorry not to have time for a VinoRoma tasting at the studio. Thanks Maurizio for the restaurant recommendation we had a delicious meal too!Written October 7, 2024

- mhwilson20150 contributionsVinaRoma Food Tour For the Win!Our family had a food tour with Fernanda on our second night in Rome, of a 12 day trip. It ended up being a highlight of our entire experience in Italy. Fernanda was so great with our kids, brought us to many wonderful places for food and shared countless tips that we leveraged throughout our trip. We had so much fun and will always organize a food tour in any place we visit moving forward. I highly recommend it!Written July 9, 2024

Great wines and hugely knowledgeable staff. Wish we could have stayed longer but had a dinner reservation....you must go!!!Written July 1, 2024
- 99norah0 contributionsincredible experience: My Lazio at VinoRomaMy partner and I had a wonderful time doing the My Lazio wine tasting at VinoRoma! We were guided by Frank across the Lazio region through expertly selected low-intervention wines. We loved learning about the wine makers and the process of wine making. We had never done a wine tasting before, but Frank ensured we felt comfortable to share our thoughts and observations. We left the tasting with a newfound interest and appreciation for wine. I HIGHLY recommend this experience for anyone who finds themselves in Rome. This is sure to be a highlight of our time in Italy!Written June 30, 2024
- 20oz150 contributionsUnique wine education experience - not to be missedWhat a fantastic wine tasting experience! A Thursday evening, open wine tasting was such a unique opportunity to taste excellent wines from around Italy that I would otherwise have never learned about. All wines are natural ferment, which I usually avoid. But these were the best I ever had. And the amount of wine knowledge provided was amazing. I also love the long table setting. The conversation with other guests was something I cherished on top of the great wine education. So, thank you very much. I will visit again when I am back in RomeWritten June 29, 2024
- 25neela0 contributionsInformative, Social and VERY TASTY Natural Wine Experience!Started from the bottom & now I am a 100% natural wine convert - all thanks to VinoRoma Studio! I took their Level 1 wine course & it was a great combination of education and good ole fashioned wine drinking! Enjoyed so much that I have continued my studies to the Level 2 course. The wine professors Maurizio & Frank are extremely helpful & passionate about natural wine. Can highly recommend visiting their open cantina on Thursday (4-8pm) to try a glass or two or three in an informal/ social environment.Written June 17, 2024

Get off the beaten path and take a deeper dive into a special neighborhood. Try amazing food and have a great afternoon with the best guide. I highly recommend it.Written May 29, 2024
- nickwoodwsrd0 contributionsGreat Place to Start a Visit to MontiMaurizio did an excellent job. A nice variety of wines that were well explained. There were several other gouups there which provided variety to the discussion and a range of interesting questions.Written April 18, 2024
- FoggyEthan0 contributionsCantinAperta -- highly recommendedWe went for the Thursday "CantinAperta". They had a wine list with 6 wines, all great. You can taste them individually or make a full tasting of all 6. Total price was about 35E for all 6, and the pours were generous. The hosts have good tastes in interesting wines.Written March 22, 2024
- I1500GQstefans0 contributionsPleasant and insightful experience, with an inviting host.For someone with little to no experience in wines prior to the tasting, I had a great experience at VinoRoma, and plan to return at a later time. The host is inviting, knowledgeable, and does a great job explaining the wines and their backgrounds, as well as fostering discussion. Overall, the atmosphere felt welcoming and pleasant even for a beginner. There was a nicely varied selection of wines from differing regions in Italy. I'm very happy I got to try such a broad range of wines, as no two wines felt the same, each was it's own experience. The cellar itself is located in a charming neighbourhood close to the colosseum. A short walk from the metro.Written March 18, 2024
- sharrieuk0 contributionsIf you’re in Rome and love wine, this is a must-doOne of the top highlights of our break in Rome. We tasted 3 white wines and 3 reds and learned so much, from how to taste the wine properly through sight, smell and taste to understanding about the wine making process and the different wine making regions of Italy. Maurizio was brilliant, extremely knowledgeable, answered all our questions and offered hints and tips for us to consider when buying wine. A fantastic experience that I would highly recommend.Written March 12, 2024

We met with Maurizio for two hours for a private Wine tasting and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves! Very educational as my husband specifically, wanted to learn more about Italian wines. He provided six wines while educating us and providing also, appropriate cheese and cured meats for each pairing. Highly recommend us! It was something different for us.

Maurizio gave us amazing insight on all the wines we've tasted and luckily let us know where to get them too. He chose some amazing wines that could fit at various times and chose very creative wines as well.
I can recommend this wine tour to anyone who enjoys wine in general, even if your knowledge of it isn't that great.

My brother and I had a delightful time at VinoRoma exploring minimal intervention wines. Maurizio our host was terrific. He is extremely knowledgeable about Italian wines (and wines in general), and gently walked us through the distinctive nature of each wine and how they were made. His stories were wonderful, revealing a genuine passion for wine making. We tried wines that were unfamiliar to us, each beautifully paired with different kinds of cheese and meat. We learned a great deal, and I want to mention that the other guests were wonderful conversationalists, it was a lively and delicious event. I highly recommend it and would do it again the next time we are in Rome.

Myself and two friends had the pleasure of attending a "My Italians" wine tasting on our recent trip to Rome. Maurizio was a fantastic host; he clearly had an expansive knowledge of wine, but he was also adept at making the wine tasting accessible and welcoming for those who are less experienced. I will definitely be attending another tasting the next time that I am in Rome!

We tried the ‘My Italians’ tasting which allowed us to learn a lot about wines from different Italian regions. We really enjoyed discovering some rather rare wines.
The atmosphere was superb, the founder/facilitator passionate and exciting! The place is very nice. Finally, we were in a small, very friendly group. So we had a great time.

My husband and I had a fantastic time tasting 6 different Italian wines with Maurizio. There were 3 white wines and 3 red wines, each from a different region in Italy. We learned so much about the wines, regions, and food pairings. The ambience was amazing and we had a wonderful conversation with Maurizio (we even learned that his sister lives and has a business in the same area as we do in North Carolina, USA)! You don’t want to miss out on this experience so make sure to book an experience with VinoRoma!

Frank was an excellent guide to these wines. He took us from the north of Italy to the south with six glasses! We truly got an education and it was so NOT snobby or boring. Frank is really down to earth, but knows his stuff. Go out of your way, build this into your trip to Rome!

We did a 2 hour wine and cheese pairing experience at VinoRoma. The host was extremely knowledgeable about wine and chees in general but really did a great job of explaining to our group the italian experience. We tasted 4 wines with various side dishes and each of them was absolutely amazing. If you are in Rome and want to learn about Italian wines, you cannot miss this.
