Experience Details

This is not a wine bar or a standard wine tasting. Taste'Accio is the gateway to Lazio's hidden wine heritage, located inside a historic underground cave carved into Monte dei Cocci, one of Rome's most unique archaeological sites. Instead of tasting famous Italian wines from regions like Tuscany or Piedmont, you'll discover rare labels from small independent wineries, native grape varieties and volcanic terroir found only around Rome. Every bottle has been carefully selected to showcase the diversity and identity of Lazio, a wine region often overlooked by visitors. The experience is enriched with a selection of traditional Lazio specialties, fascinating stories about Roman food culture and winemaking, and insights from an expert host. With small groups, a relaxed atmosphere and an extraordinary underground setting, this is an authentic, immersive experience that offers a side of Rome few travellers ever discovered.

What You’ll Experience

Skip the crowded wine bars and discover a hidden side of Rome. Your experience begins inside a historic underground cave built into Monte dei Cocci, one of Rome's archaeological sites. This ancient hill, created over 2,000 years ago from millions of Roman amphora fragments, has maintained the perfect natural temperature for aging food and wine for centuries. After a short introduction to the history of Testaccio and Ancient Rome's food trade, your sommelier will guide you through four carefully selected wines produced exclusively in Lazio by independent wineries. You'll discover indigenous grape varieties such as Malvasia Puntinata and rare local blends while learning how the volcanic soils around Rome shape the wines' minerality, freshness and character. Each wine is paired with artisanal Lazio specialties selected to enhance every tasting. Unlike traditional food tours, there is no walking between venues. Everything takes place in an intimate underground setting where you can relax, ask questions and enjoy an authentic Roman wine experience away from the crowds. Perfect for wine lovers, couples and curious travellers looking to discover Rome beyond its famous landmarks.
