Wine tasting tour in the Cap Corse
Explore some of the best wineries near Bastia, Erbalonga and the Cap Corse during our private guided wine tasting tours in Corsica.
About the tour
Corsica Wine Tours invites you on a private wine tour in the Cap Corse, the narrow peninsula where vineyards cling to steep hillsides above the sea. Visit two wineries with a native Corsican guide, meet the winemaker, and taste the Cap Corse’s reds, rosés, whites and its signature sweet Muscat. With a panoramic walk at Moulin Mattei and lunch in a fishermen’s port, the day takes you from the vineyards to the harbours.

F.A.Q.
The full-day tour lasts about 7 hours, including a lunch stop. I collect you at your door at 9:00 or 9:30 am and bring you back at the end of the day.
Since Cap Corse is very seasonal, this tour is available from April 15th to October 15th. Outside this period I suggest Patrimonio instead.
I offer door-to-door pickup in the Bastia, Saint-Florent and Erbalonga areas. If you are staying elsewhere, write to me and I’ll tell you what is possible.
