My husband and I spent the day with Angelo and he was a perfect host! Our favorite was the first farm of the day where they were making parmesan reggiano, but the whole day was wonderful. We also saw where proscuitto di parma is made, had a delicious meal at a castle, and saw (and tasted of course) traditional balsamic... More

We spent a fabulous day with Paula first to taste the most sublime parmigiani followed by ham, after a very informative tour of local producers.
