Great activity! We loved learning about the production of wine/olive oil, and the scenery was breathtaking.
Seamless, loved it... they loved it... it's my default wedding gift from now on... Makes me happy to give a gift like this as you know you are handing over a box of joy... if you get a kick out of making other people happy, this is the perfect gift.
Winemaking is one of the oldest and noblest traditions of Tuscany, a region of Italy that gives the world the famous Chianti reds. While steeped in history, Tuscan winemakers have never rested on their laurels, or vines, and the new breed of Super Tuscans, produced from the 1980s and 1990s, have also enjoyed wide acclaim. If you love wine and would like to know more about it, then why not opt for this immensely enjoyable Tuscany gift experience, where you’ll be transported by luxury coach through the countryside for a day of tasting?
Learn the basic principles of wine-tasting, very handy for beginners. Following that, you’ll be taken through the gorgeous rolling hills, olive groves and cypress trees that make up this sublime scenery, to two well-known wineries of the Chianti Classico region. Take guided tours of the cellar, and taste 3-4 wines at each, before breaking for a delicious light Tuscan meal such as bruschetta with cheese and cold cuts, and a pasta dish. A memorable day out, guaranteed.
