This gourmet getaway is an intimate insider experience. We will be staying at Agriturismo B&B and Cooking school Alla Madonna del Piatto which is owned & managed by Letizia Mattiacci family and located on a magical mountain near medieval Assisi and its world-famous Basilica of Saint Francis.
We will spend our days exploring ancient hill towns, olive groves & vineyards. The extraordinary highlight of this trip will be celebrating the Olive Harvest.
We will visit a working olive mill, tasting the “Olio Nuovo” (new oil) just moments after the olives have been pressed and learn about the nuances of its flavor. We will also have a private feast at our friend Corinna’s Olive Estate.
Alla Madonna del Piatto Cooking School is listed by National Geographic among 500 places to eat around the globe, and has also been recently written about in the New York Times. Letizia will open her kitchen to you and teach you how to make traditional seasonal recipes from the region.
There will be time for visiting local sights like medieval Assisi, Perugia, Foligno & Deruta, home to Italy’s greatest ceramic artisans.
Each day will be filled with new discoveries and plenty of time for relaxation, friendship & of course enjoying the food and wine of Umbria.
