Friends of Small Vineyards
Our philosophy, known as Tappo-a-Tappo, is to connect the people who make the wines with the people who enjoy them. We are proud to partner with the following companies who enthusiastically share our philosophy, providing exceptional tours, travel and wine experiences that incorporate our family of estates:
Small Vineyards Travel, operated by travel veteran Doumina Whyman of Enthusiastic Traveler, offers intimate tours of our family estates, providing travelers a taste of the real Mediterranean lifestyle, including family, food, and, of course, great wine! You can select from single or multi-day wine tours, hiking excursions, boating, or week-long food and wine expeditions throughout Italy. Regardless of your tour, you can be sure to taste fabulous wines from our small, family-owned estates—often with the families themselves! (Stay tuned for Small Vineyards tours of Spain and Portugal!)
Willie’s World Cycling offers a variety of cycling excursions throughout Italy, with visits to our small, family-owned wineries throughout the tour. In addition to serious, and seriously beautiful cycling through the Italian countryside, you will be fully immersed in the culture of Italian winemaking, meeting the vintners themselves, and experiencing their passion as they share stories about their land, their families, and the wines they produce.
Those who travel to our estates often wish to order the wines they have tasted and have them waiting when they get back home. World Wines at Home provides this service, offering a wide selection of the Small Vineyards portfolio, and taking care of the taxes, tariffs, shipping, and logistics for you. They also ship to states where Small Vineyards may not have distribution, as well as hard-to-reach areas where obtaining our wines can be difficult. Be sure to sign-up for their monthly wine club, a great experience for anyone who loves Mediterranean wine!
