Cori With your hands

Tasting at the Cori cooperative winery

Cori

Cori is a hill town with a Roman temple at the top of it and vineyards running down the slope below. The wine is made co-operatively by the growers who own those slopes, from Bellone and Nero Buono.

How the day goes

  1. The tasting at the co-operative, with grapes that grow almost nowhere else as the point.
  2. Cori itself above you afterwards: the Tempio d'Ercole and the polygonal walls.

The same place books a table and rooms as well, so this can open a longer stop instead of being a tasting wedged into a drive.

Where it is

Cori at its real position from Rome, with everywhere else we list behind it — so you can see how far out this one is.
