Combine a visit to the enchanting village of Porto Azzurro with wine tasting at a vineyard once frequented by Emperor Napoleon. After leaving the busy capital of Portoferraio, your 30-minute drive will feature magnificent views of Lacona and Laconella Bays and Golfo Stella as you pass rocky beaches and high cliffs. Ahead lies Porto Azzuro, which boasts an ancient medieval fortress and picturesque fisherman’s harbor. You will have free time to browse among its many tempting shops. Back aboard the coach, you will continue to the Azienda Agricola La Chiusa estate, whose vineyard directly overlooks Portoferraio. This estate hosted Napoleon Bonaparte on two separate occasions. The vineyard prides itself on quality over quantity, so its vines are always short pruned. During your 60-minute stay, there will be an explanation of wine production at the farmhouse before you can sample the extra virgin olive oil and taste the wine. After enjoying time at leisure, you will take the 30-minute return drive to your yacht in Portoferraio.
