A half day tour, closely away from Parma, towards the great river Po, discovering the King of cold cuts: Culatello.
The tour will lead you from the magnificent Ducal Palace of Colorno, also known as a small parmesan Versailles, to a cellar where you will enjoy the view and fragrance of more than 7.000 Culatellos, whose seasoning takes advantage of the humid climate of these surroundings. The appetizer will be based on a selection of cold cuts, accompanied by red local wines such as Fortana and Lambrusco, while the lunch will be hosted by an ancient mill, formerly owned by Giuseppe Verdi's family.
