The\u00a0 cantina<\/em> where wine is produced, stowed and sold.<\/h4>\n

Back in the thirties when Roberto\u2019s father returned from the United States, where he had emigrated in the twenties because phyloxera that had destroyed all existing\u00a0 vines, bought a cantina<\/em>, still called della compagnia<\/em> from the name of the area in which it is located.\u00a0 In the cantina della compagni<\/em>a\u00a0 white wine was produced for the purpose of selling and red wine for the family to drink.\u00a0 At the beginning of the fifties he also bought the betiga de la val\u00e8ita<\/em>, (so called in dialect) from the name of the lane that leads to the cantina<\/em>. Named la val\u00e8ita\u00a0<\/em> from the name of the lane where the water from the rain used to flow down to the\u00a0 brook. Nowadays the brook has been covered and transformed in the main street in Riomaggiore\u00a0 named Via Colombo.
\nWine has been produced since then in the two cantine<\/em>. In more recent times la betiga de la val\u00e8ita<\/em> was a place for a local group of friends\u00a0 where to meet and drink until very late at night.\u00a0 Sometimes also the first adventurous turists were invited in, forerunners of a turist development unthinkable in those times. The ritual continues nowadays with\u00a0 tourists visiting the cantina<\/em>\u00a0 and tasting Sciacchetr\u00e0<\/strong>. In one of these encounters we met Anke ed Irina, they provided the German and Russian version of this site!<\/p>\n

The renewal of the cantina<\/em> has connected dinamically the archiect and the operators, mosltly friends. In Chiara\u2019s project the poor stone structure is enhanced\u00a0 with a daring glass structure next to the stone area. Such structure was\u00a0 built to make it possible to bottle\u00a0 wine in accordante with the rules of hygiene.\u00a0 A brilliant dialogue between old stones and modern requirements.<\/p>\n

Option 2. -Wine tasting\u00a0 in the cantina, how to reach the \u201ccantina\u201d located in Via Gramsci 11 from the station. <\/strong><\/h2>\n

From the train station through a tunnel\u00a0 you reach the center of riomaggiore, you twill find yourself in Via Colombo, the main street. At the first right turning take it, it is via Gramsci, it is a small street under a vault next to Hotel Zorza, a few steps up and then turn right again,\u00a0 you will find yourself\u00a0 under another vault,\u00a0 a few steps forward and you will\u00a0 find the green doorway of the cantina.<\/strong><\/h4>\n
