It was a great month in the farm with Lorenzo, Laura and Peter. They are really friendly, kind and nice people. Foods were tasty, their dogs and cat were lovely. It was a nice experience to meet with new people, learning Italian culture, explore other cities and new places and to experience farm life in a vineyard. The work wasn't easy, it needs too much effort (5 hours in a day) and the rooms that we stayed wasn't super clean. For the people who don't care too much about the cleaning it can be a perfect experience.

It's a great place if you want to be surrounded by nature yet to meet lots of amazing people. Thanks to them you feel like home away from home. Work can be physically demanding but nothing extreme. There were 10-14 volunteers in 3-4 rooms. Rooms and a shower are shared. During the harvest the priority was to pick the grapes and to process them in the winery, so the house can look a bit neglected but it's your responsibility to keep it clean. On days off it's nice to travel, Lorenzo, Laura and Peter are willing to pick you up at the station, which is very convenient. Grazie mille di tutto!

My first volunteer work abroad. I am very content and glad that I chose this winery. Family was welcoming and open. I felt safe and the food was good. Laura è un'ottima cuoca. Work was demanding. Depends on the season, but during summer, it's mainly cutting and cleaning baby plants, but with hot weather, it gets quickly boring and hard. Also during my time the family faced some difficulties with their company and the atmosphere at home was also a little tense. But all in all it was a pleasure to work and live with Lorenzo, Laura and Peter! Grazie mille per la vostra gentilezza e ospitalità!

Hosts are very nice people and welcoming, they are helpful if you need a ride to a town, store, train station. Meals are very tasty and vastly. The work is hard physically and it's expected to become faster as the days go by, but if you are an active person you'll be fine. If you are not fluent in Italian there could be some miscommunication if you're working with Laura because of the language barrier, so be patient and ask questions. Overall a good experience. While working in some of the fields you will experience some beautiful landscapes.

I really enjoyed staying with Lorenzo and his family. The work is hard but it was fun working with the other volunteers. Laura's food is delicious and I enjoyed watching her cook. Thanks for everything:)

What a unique experience it was to volunteer at Lorenzo's vineyard. I learned so much about what a complex process it is involved to produce the winery. This has been the most physically demanding work I've done in my trip but it was also very rewarding. It was truly an immersive experience. I learned some delicious recipes from signora Laura, talked about history with Peter, and spoke Italian everyday with Lorenzo. I recommend this experience to anyone that wants a true exposure to the Italian way of life out on the countryside.

It is a truly immersive experience, get ready to put your work boots on and get to farming, the family is absolutely amazing, I would go back just for the food alone. Lorenzo keeps you laughing, and Laura is amazing

I had a really good experience meeting new people and getting to work in the field harvesting the grapes. It was fun. Lorenzo and his parents are really nice people and Laura makes the best pasta.

This was my first Worldpackers experience ever and I cannot thank the family of Lorenzo, Peter and Laura enough for this amazing opportunity. Certainly, the work is super hard as you have to get better, stronger and faster especially during the harvest, otherwise Sergeant Lorenzo would be pretty unhappy. The shower might not be pleasurable as there is a lack of water pressure and decent temperature (sometimes). Though, I have a lot during my stay here as well as improved my Italian talking to my nonna Laura, is a wonderful cook and awe-inspiring woman. Overall a grape experience :)

This experience was a once in a lifetime! I'm so lucky I got the chance to experience what it's like to harvest grapes, and the intricate process behind the scenes of what It takes to make such amazing the winery. Lorenzo and his family were beyond welcoming and loving, seriously. Always will help you out and make you feel like your at home. This place was my home. The food laura made was delicious! And the work hours were respected and fair. It was a good collaboration between volunteers and host and everyone was working together as a whole. If you like community living this is definitely the place
