I really enjoyed my stay with Lorenzo. The work is simple but physical. I got there for the last week of harvest, the harvest is repetitive but being so many in the field really makes it fun. When the harvest is over, we are doing bunch of different tasks around the field, the house and the property so a great variety of work, which was enjoyable.

I had an amazing time at Lorenzo's vineyard. It was so fun to work together as a team with the other volunteers during the harvest and I have so much respect for both Lorenzo and Peter who were always working alongside us and putting in even more hours when our shift had ended. Lorenzo is very easy-going kind and funny and I felt incredibly welcomed by him and his family. The house is beautiful and comfortable and I enjoyed all the time I got to spent outside everyday. Thank you for this lovely experience! I hope to come back one day :)

I had an amazing month with Lorenzo, Laura and Peter! This was my first volunteering experience and couldn't have wished for any better! I loved to spend time with the other volunteers and I felt like I was part of a big family. The food was the best I've ever had. The work was repetitive and physical, but for me, the perfect amount of physical. I had lots of time to think about life while working. The nature around the house is breathtaking and perfect for making adventures. If you're into a farm lifestyle and want to connect with nature I can absolutely recommend this experience for you!

I had the best time at the vineyard with Lorenzo, Peter, Laura, and the team of volunteers. Everyone got along well, and it made my time here even better than I was expecting. The work was repetitive and physical, but I always had fun doing it with everyone. The accommodation was good and the food was amazing. The location is a bit rural, but there are plenty of things to do and time to take the train out of town for a few days. I hope I can find time to come back next year. Ciao!

I had a wonderful time here with Lorenzo, Peter, Laura and the other volunteers! As soon as I met Lorenzo with his authentic warmth (when he picked me up from the train station) I was reassured. This was my first Worldpackers experience and I'm very glad! The work in the vineyard was incredibly cathartic for me and gave me a lot of time to think, and I loved driving home with the sunset and Italian music (and Lorenzo's lyric translations!) There were 5 other girls in their mid-20s when I arrived and it was so fun to befriend them. Other highlights were 'Just Dance' and practicing Italian :)

I'm really happy that this was my first time doing volunteering on Worldpackers! It has inspired me to do more volunteering in the future. Staying at the beautiful Wineyard was a great learning experience in many ways. All from being taught the whole process of making the winery, and learning Italian in a fun way from Laura, to Peter giving us enjoyable history lessons. Lorenzo has a admirable view on farming, and his passion for the Wineyard definitely shows. The welcoming family, relaxed mood and homecooked meals really help the volunteers feel at home. Grazie mille<3

During my stay I made some friendships and memories that I will always hold close to my heart. My fav parts were the copious amounts of bread & pasta, cute cat, playing guitar, learning italian, being surrounded by beautiful vineyards, and good laughs. Work is repetitive, as expected. Communication could be difficult at times but Lorenzo is always kind to answer your questions. It takes a lot of work to run a the winery, so it is up to you and the volunteers to coordinate cleaning in your space. If you are up for a farm lifestyle and living alongside nature,this experience is perfect for you.

Lorenzo, Laura and Peter were all warm and friendly from day one, they really go out of their way to make you feel welcome. It is my first time doing anything like this and I really enjoyed my time there and would definitely recommend to others. Only negative is almost half of the other volunteers didn't enjoy the experience but I'm not going to speak on their behalf so look at all the reviews on here and other websites to actually know what to expect.

I recommend this experience to anyone looking for an authentic stay in the winery. It's a traditional family and the work gives insight into their lifestyle. Peter and Laura are excellent cooks and Italian teachers. Lorenzo, Vivi (and Camis) became great friends. I felt very welcomed, though some communication adjustments would be appreciated. Tasks are physical and outdoors, so be ready for adverse weather and some muscle soreness. The accommodation was functional. The location is quite remote, but they offered rides on weekends, and I got to visit nearby towns. I'm grateful! Thank you for all.
