For those seeking a complete experience of wine, culture, and storytelling, the Donna Ida Wine Tour & Tasting is the perfect choice. In 90 minutes, this guided tour offers an authentic glimpse into the world of Villa Dianella, through a journey that weaves together places, tools, and flavors.
The visit begins at Leonardo’s vineyard and continues through the historic cellars, winding through the various production and storage areas. Oak barrels, underground rooms, vinification halls — each space tells a piece of our story. Thanks to the presence of vintage machinery, no longer in use, visitors also discover how bottling, labeling, and corking were done in the past.
The tour concludes with a guided tasting of three Villa Dianella wines, paired with bruschetta topped with our own extra virgin olive oil.
The Donna Ida Tour is designed for those who truly want to understand what’s inside every bottle: the vineyard work, the cellar time, and the passion for quality. Available in Italian and English, by reservation.
It’s possible to upgrade the tour with a premium wine tasting.
Who Was Donna Ida
This tour is named in honor of Ida, one of the daughters of Renato Fucini, the renowned poet and writer who once lived at Villa Dianella. The choice is no coincidence: the estate is now managed by Veronica, a woman committed to continuing this legacy with dedication and a contemporary vision — sharing the story of the land, its wines, and its history. The same care for family and heritage inspired the names of other Villa Dianella tours: Emma and Rita, named after Veronica’s mother and the other daughter of Renato Fucini.
The most complete tour, which includes a food and wine experience, an in-depth visit, and tasting, is named after Veronica. And if new experiences are created, they will bear the names of her daughters — a testament to the deep bond between people, places, and family memory.
The Donna Ida Tour is therefore much more than a visit: it is a narrative that spans generations, stories, passions, and a profound desire to share all of this with those who step in — even if just for a day — into the world of Villa Dianella.
