Our cruise ship was here for the day and we booked a tour most of which was spent with Guido. We strolled around the old town glass in hand. Our hosts carried baskets to top our wine up! Very, very informative and unexpectedly exceptional. Do this if you can!!!

This store is amazing! I usually pay a visit prior leaving every time I come to Rapallo. The owner Guido is very acknowledgeable of the gourmet items he carries and will recommend the best wines at your preferred price range. He speaks fluent English and the way he describes how wine or olive oil being […]

I cannot brag on this place enough! We did a private wine tasting and it was amazing…Guido (the owner) works hard to deliver an amazing experience. Great food and great wines! They can fix you a picnic or supply you with food and wine to ship home! LOVE this place….

Our afternoon with Guido was the best time. I highly recommend doing a tasting experience with him. He and his staff, Barbara and Cristiano, were incredible. They had a welcome sign prepared for us along with welcome focaccia and wine for adults… For the two hours we were there we felt like the only people […]

Truly the most hospitable service I’ve encountered.

They provided a cooking class on short notice for my daughter. My husband and I were going to go shop but we were encouraged to stay and were treated to wine while we watched her learn. We also tasted samples of olive oil and vinegar, made purchases and they shipped it home for us! Fantastic […]

Guido is the man here and he is magnificent, he prepared wine, cheese and meats for us to try, loved all of them. Don’t go anywhere else, come here, the most friendly, knowledgeable shop, ever.

While staying in Santa Margherita, one of the activities that my family and I wanted to do was wine tasting. Although we could not find a vineyard to go to, Guido’s shop was the next best thing. We got to taste a large variety of wines as well as cheeses and meats. Guido made the […]
