We had an amazing time! They do a great job at helping you arrange transportation to the vineyard! Simone and Manuela were amazing hosts. Simone was very knowledgeable and the class was amazing learning about wine production and origins as well as olive oil. They give you a FEAST. The 6 courses are truly 6 courses and I was full by course 3/4! They TASTED AMAZINGGGG! 10/10 the best food! The wines were great as well. This was really the highlight of our trip. Simone also takes pics of you. We loved that as well. They drove us to the bus stop upon our departure. Best experience ever.

We had such a great experience! We took the public bus from Florence and our hosts gave us specific instructions for which bus to catch and when. That was very helpful. We received an interesting talk about the history of wine in that particular region and the why behind each of this vineyard’s wines. We took a tour of the beautiful grounds and then enjoyed an amazing Tuscany meal along with ten different wines. We highly recommend this tour if you’re able to make it work! Really fun and unique experience.

This tour was very educational in the best way. You could feel the passion for wine throughout the whole experience. We had never had wine before this experience and quickly learned to appreciate the craftsmanship of a good quality wine. We had an amazing meal with samples of 10 different wines which were all fantastic in their own way. We even purchased 3 different bottles to take home. Definitely a stop you want to make to get authentic and classical wine. Can’t wait to order more from them in the future.
