Underground Wine & Food Tasting Experience in Trastevere at Fabullus

Step into the soul of Trastevere, Rome’s most vibrant and authentic neighbourhood, and uncover one of the city’s best-kept secrets: Fabullus, an extraordinary underground wine cellar steeped in over 2,000 years of history. Nestled beneath an 18th-century palazzo, this atmospheric space was once a Roman cistern from the 1st century AD, now beautifully restored and transformed into a refined tasting venue adorned with antique furnishings and timeless charm.

This experience is an exclusive journey through the flavours, stories and traditions of Italy, designed for those who seek authentic culinary encounters. The welcoming team will guide guests through a curated selection of Italy’s finest wines and regional specialities, explaining origins, producers and the techniques behind each recipe. Dishes and wines are chosen to complement one another, highlighting the biodiversity and heritage that define Italian gastronomy.

Fabullus works closely with small, artisanal suppliers, many recognised by the Slow Food presidium, to offer sustainable, high-quality products that celebrate regional identity. The intimate setting of the restored cistern creates an evocative backdrop where history, taste and conversation combine. Whether you are a seasoned wine enthusiast or a curious traveller, this tasting promises memorable flavours, cultural insight and a refined atmosphere that will linger long after your visit.
