Rome: Trastevere Gourmet Food and Wine Tasting Experience

In the heart of Trastevere, Rome’s most vibrant and storied neighborhood, lies a hidden gem beneath the surface: Cantina Fabullus, an ancient Roman cistern transformed into an intimate and atmospheric wine cellar. Tucked beneath an 18th-century building, this underground space—over 2,000 years old—is richly decorated with antique furnishings and historical artifacts that evoke the deep roots of Italian culture.

By booking this exclusive food and wine tasting experience, you’ll step into a timeless setting where history and flavor come together. In the cool, quiet cellar, our team will guide you through the stories, origins, and traditions behind Italy’s most cherished culinary treasures.

Every product has been carefully selected from small-scale artisans and producers recognized by the Slow Food Presidia, champions of biodiversity, authenticity, and sustainable practices. Paired with rare and expressive wines, each bite and sip offers an authentic taste of Italy’s regional richness and heritage.

This is more than a tasting—it's a journey through centuries of tradition, served at the table in one of Rome’s most unique and unforgettable settings.
