Embark upon a journey into the heart of Tuscany, nestled amidst the rolling hills of the Chianti region, renowned for its storied vineyards and centuries-old wineries. Begin your day with a visit to an ancient Etruscan cellar. Here you'll discover the secrets of Italian vinification, from grape selection to maturation, that contribute to the distinctive character of each vintage. After exploring the historic cellar, indulge in a sumptuous four-course lunch, meticulously prepared to reflect the rich culinary heritage of this enchanting region. Each course is thoughtfully paired with one of six prestigious wines produced on-site. The wines, ranging from robust reds to vibrant whites, allow you to explore the breadth and depth of the winery's craftsmanship. With every sip, uncover the nuanced taste profiles influenced by the fertile soils, unique microclimate, and expert cultivation of the vineyard's Terroir.

Make your journey just as exciting as your destination on a private 3-hour Tuscany tour in a vintage Fiat 500. You'll indulge in wine tasting at a family-run vineyard in Chianti without having to worry about driving afterward—your private guide takes the wheel to allow you to soak up the scenery.

With spotty public transportation and winding rural roads, the Brunello di Montalcino wine country can be tricky to explore on your own. Discover the history and flavor of one of Italy’s premier wines with ease on this full-day tour from Florence. Travel through the Tuscan countryside to the Brunello hills and the village of Montalcino. Visit a small, family-run winery to learn about traditional production methods and taste renowned varietals like Brunello DOCG and Rosso di Montalcino DOC. Savor a farm-fresh lunch of Tuscan specialties at the estate, and finish the day with more tastings at another local winery.

Our experienced sommelier will guide you through a tasting of four fine wines, including a white wine and three different red wines, each with its own unique characteristics and nuances. The red wines will surprise you with their colours from ruby red to deep dark red; you will learn to recognise the flavours, from the softest to the most tannic; you will discover the many aromas hidden in a wine, belonging to the families of spices, fruits, woods and many others such as leather and tobacco. White wine will refresh you and offer delicate and complex notes, also all to be discovered and analysed. The expert sommelier who will guide you through the tasting will not only introduce you to the wines, but also talk to you about the best pairings to make with food, local and otherwise. Once the tasting is over, it will be time for dinner, based on fresh, local and typical products, to be enjoyed in the beautiful SiChef Villa, framed by the Tuscan hills.
