The price includes breakfast, 4 dinners as part of the cooking class, 1 dinner at La Rogaia, and a lavish truffle tasting (lunch)

During the course, over the course of four evenings, you’ll cook a full meal—from antipasto to dolce—under Ornella’s guidance, which you’ll then enjoy together—naturally, accompanied by a fine wine from Umbrian and Tuscan vineyards. Ornella’s Mediterranean spirit ensures a lively atmosphere—both while cooking and while eating...

A special highlight of the cooking class is participating in a truffle hunt: You’ll accompany a truffle hunter and his dog, allowing you to experience firsthand how these precious tubers are found deep underground. And, of course, during the subsequent tasting with wine and truffle specialties, you’ll sample the incomparable flavors of the various Umbrian truffle varieties.
Afterward, we’ll visit a small winemaker who produces exquisite Vin Santo, the local dessert wine.
And in the fall, a tasting of freshly pressed Umbrian olive oil is, of course, a must!
