Exclusive Tour of the Vineyards with Visit to the Cellar!

A hilltop glass of Prosecco sets the mood. At Tenuta Mani Sagge near San Pietro di Feletto, you get more than a quick wine tasting: you walk through old vines, visit a restored cellar, hear a family story spanning more than a century, and taste Prosecco Superiore DOCG with local food. I especially like the UNESCO-listed hill views and the generous tasting led by people closely tied to the estate. The main drawback is the short two-hour schedule, which leaves little room for lingering over the scenery or asking endless wine questions.

This private experience costs $82.91 per person and begins at 10:30 a.m. It suits anyone who wants a focused introduction to the Conegliano Valdobbiadene wine area without committing to a full day. Comfortable shoes matter, since the visit includes paths through the vineyards and a hilltop walk.

Key Points at a Glance

• A family estate with more than 100 years of wine tradition: You hear the story of Mani Sagge from people connected directly to the property.
• A walk through Prosecco Superiore country: The vineyard route gives you wide views across the UNESCO-recognized hills.
• The restored Invisible Cellar: The former stables now house a modern wine cellar and agriturismo.
• A generous tasting: Sample several Prosecco Superiore DOCG wines, other estate wines, salami, and cheeses.
• Private format: Your group takes part on its own, rather than joining a large coach group.
• Easy cancellation terms: You can cancel for a full refund up to 24 hours before the start time.

Why This Small Estate Visit Works So Well

Many wine outings boil down to a cellar, three glasses, and a sales pitch. Mani Sagge offers a broader picture. You see the vines, hear how the estate developed, visit the production space, and then taste the results in a scenic setting.

That order matters. A glass of Prosecco means more when you have just walked past the vines and learned what the estate is trying to make. You are not simply tasting a brand. You are connecting the bottle with a place, a family, and a hilltop growing area.

The private format is another strong point. Only your group takes part, so the pace should feel more personal than a large public tasting. Sara and Marco are named as hosts in the available information. Marco, the owner, has led estate walks and tastings, while Sara has been praised for clear explanations and warm hosting.

The experience has earned a 4.9 rating from seven published ratings. That is a small sample, but the praise is consistent: the setting, hospitality, wine selection, food, and explanations receive the strongest attention.

Arriving at San Pietro di Feletto

The meeting point is Mani Sagge, Cantina Locanda Agriturismo Wine Bar, at Via Manzana 46 in San Pietro di Feletto. This is not in central Treviso, so you need to plan the approach rather than simply walk over from a city hotel.

One useful transport detail is that the estate can be reached by public transport. A route described for the property uses a train to Conegliano, then bus 43 for about 10 minutes, followed by a walk of roughly 15 to 20 minutes. That makes the visit possible without a car, though you should allow time for the final walk and arrive ready for an outdoor portion.

The tour begins at 10:30 a.m. Arriving early is sensible. The property includes an agriturismo, cellar, wine bar, and panoramic garden, so you will want a few minutes to find the meeting point without rushing.

The tour ends where it begins. That is convenient if you have left a car there, and it gives you the option of buying wine or taking a little more time at the estate afterward, though the supplied details do not confirm any separate shopping arrangement.

Walking the Prosecco Superiore Vineyards

The first major part of the experience takes you along the estate’s vineyard paths. The purpose is not strenuous hiking. It is to help you understand the setting and see the old vines from close range.

The estate sits in the Prosecco Superiore area, where the hills give the region a different feel from flat vineyard country. From the top of the hill, you can look across the UNESCO-recognized scenery. The view is one of the most praised parts of the visit, and it gives the morning a strong sense of place.

This is where good footwear helps. Comfortable shoes are recommended because you will be walking outdoors on estate paths, and the property is hilly. Sandals or formal shoes could make the walk less pleasant.

I like that the vineyard walk is part of the experience rather than an optional extra. If you only taste wine indoors, the region can seem abstract. Here, you see the terrain before moving on to the cellar and tasting table.

The outdoor portion may be less appealing if you want a completely seated activity or if the weather is poor. The supplied information does not describe a weather backup, so check conditions before you go and dress for a short walk through the grounds.

Inside the Restored Invisible Cellar

The cellar occupies ancient stables that have undergone a thorough restoration. Mani Sagge calls the result the Invisible Cellar, an intriguing name for a space that combines an old agricultural structure with a newer wine-making setting.

The cellar visit explains the steps that lead to the final tasting. You should expect an introduction to the estate’s production process, followed by an explanation of how the various wines reach the glass. The information does not provide a technical list of every production stage, so this is best understood as an accessible introduction rather than a specialist wine-school lesson.

The restored setting adds character. You are not visiting a generic tasting room designed only for visitors. You are seeing part of the estate’s older working buildings, adapted for present use.

The property also includes an agriturismo and a panoramic garden. Several people who stayed overnight praised the rooms, cleanliness, breakfast, and hospitality. You do not need to book a room to take the tour, but the accommodation makes the estate worth considering for a longer stay in the Prosecco hills.

What You Taste at the Table

The tasting includes different types of Prosecco Superiore DOCG along with other wines from the cellar. One tasting described by Marco included several Proseccos and a Pinot Grigio. The exact pour list may vary, so do not assume every session will feature the same bottles.

The food pairing is a plate of salami and cheese. This is simple, local fare, but it is exactly the right kind of accompaniment for a wine estate visit. The salt and fat of cured meats and cheeses give the wines a useful contrast, while the portion makes the tasting feel more like a light meal than a token snack.

The tastings have been described as generous, which is important at this price. At $82.91, you are paying for more than the wine itself. The cost includes the estate walk, cellar visit, private setting, guided explanations, several wine samples, and food.

I would not judge the value by counting glasses alone. The setting and personal attention are a large part of the appeal. If you want the cheapest possible Prosecco sample, this is not the right purchase. If you want a compact, polished introduction to the area with scenery and food included, the price is reasonable.

Tell the estate about allergies, intolerances, or other food restrictions in advance. The listed food is salami and cheese, so anyone with dietary needs should not wait until the tasting begins to ask about alternatives.

Meeting Marco and Sara

The human side of this experience receives unusually strong praise. Marco, described as the owner, has led walks through the property and explained both the family story and the future of the wine industry. His role gives the tour a direct link to the estate rather than a distant scripted presentation.

Sara has also been singled out for making the visit feel complete. Her explanations of the individual wine varieties and her friendly manner were central to the positive response. If she leads your tour, you can expect an approachable introduction rather than a lecture filled with technical terms.

The family connection is worth hearing. Mani Sagge presents its wine-making as a passion carried on for more than 100 years. That does not mean the tour is only about the past. The descriptions also point to discussion of current and future issues in the wine industry, especially during Marco’s presentation.

Because this is a private activity, you have a better chance to ask about what is in your glass, how the estate works, and which local places to see afterward. The exact depth of the conversation will depend on your guide and your group, but the format gives you more room than a large tasting room.

How Much Time You Really Need

The advertised duration is about two hours. That is enough for a vineyard walk, cellar visit, and tasting, but it is a brisk format.

You can expect the morning to move through three parts:

• An introduction to the estate and its family background
• A walk through the vineyards and up to the viewpoint
• A cellar visit followed by wine and food

The tasting is likely to be the portion you want to stretch. Wine lovers may wish for more time with each bottle, while people with a tight schedule will appreciate the efficient format.

I would allow extra time before and after the official two hours for transport, photographs, and finding the meeting point. If you are arriving by train and bus, the final walk means the experience takes more of your morning than the official duration suggests.

Who Should Book This Experience

I would recommend it most strongly to:

• Couples seeking a scenic wine outing near Treviso
• Small groups who prefer private hosting
• People interested in Prosecco beyond a bar tasting
• Visitors who enjoy local food with regional wine
• Anyone staying in or near Conegliano and the Prosecco hills
• Wine drinkers who want a relaxed introduction rather than an advanced technical course

It is also a good choice if you care about atmosphere. The hilltop views, restored stables, panoramic garden, and family-run setting make the visit feel rooted in the area.

You may want to choose something else if you dislike walking, need a fully indoor activity, or want a long, highly technical tasting. Two hours gives you a satisfying overview, not an entire day of vineyard visits.

The experience is private, and most people can participate. Service animals are allowed. The available details do not provide specific information about wheelchair access, so contact the provider directly if you need access arrangements.

Value, Booking, and Practical Tradeoffs

At $82.91 per person, the cost sits above a basic tasting but includes several layers of the estate experience. You are paying for access to the grounds, a guided vineyard walk, the restored cellar, private hosting, several wines, and a salami and cheese plate.

The strongest value comes when you appreciate the full setting. If you are already planning to visit the Prosecco hills, this combines sightseeing and tasting in one stop. If you are staying overnight at the property, the tour can also serve as an introduction to the estate and the surrounding area.

Booking about 34 days ahead is the average pattern, so reserving early is wise if your schedule is fixed. Confirmation arrives at booking, and mobile tickets are accepted. The experience is offered in English.

Cancellation is flexible up to 24 hours before the local start time, with a full refund. Changes or cancellations made inside that window are not accepted for a refund. That policy gives you some breathing room, but it is still worth watching the weather and transport plans.

Final Verdict: A Strong Choice for Prosecco Country

Book this tour if you want more than a glass of fizz and a quick photo. The combination of hilltop scenery, cellar access, family history, and a generous food pairing gives you a well-shaped introduction to the Prosecco Superiore area.

I especially like the private format and the chance to hear directly from Marco or Sara. The main limitation is time: two hours passes quickly, and the walk may not suit every visitor. Still, for $82.91, this is a strong pick for an English-language wine experience near Treviso, particularly if you can reach San Pietro di Feletto without rushing.
