Description

Discover the soul of Tuscany through your senses with the enlightening firsthand wine-focused experience of our private wine tour of Florence, in the Chianti region. 

Wondering how modern winemaking technologies blend with time-honored skills? Longing to sample premium blends, and learn to evaluate acidity, aroma and “the nose”? Enjoy an unparalleled tour including wine tasting in Tuscany, uncover the secrets of local tradition, explore the green heart of this marvelous region and its mysterious cellars too!

Ideated to provide real insight into the realm of world-class Tuscan wine, our private tour and wine tasting in Tuscany experience allows you to discover vineyards, farmsteads, wineries and countryside mansions firsthand, to get behind the labels (and into the bottles!) of some of the world's most exceptional wines: the award-winning, world-acclaimed Supertuscans.

Unique among all experiences and tours that involve wine tasting in Tuscany, our Supertuscan wine tour allows for a real privilege: enjoying the privacy and comfort of a small group tour (max 8 participants) and enjoying visits to exclusive wineries. Depart Florence and travel to the enchanted Chianti hills: endowed with a mild climate, bright sunshine, and bountiful soil, this area provides the ideal conditions to grow vines and produce the superb namesake wines everyone loves!

Led by a knowledgeable guide, and dedicated sommeliers at the wineries, you will have the chance to dive into the history and tradition of wine viewing the cellars of three different wine havens specialized in the production of Supertuscans: two renowned local wineries plus a small boutique one.

During the day you will have the opportunity of mastering the facts about wine - including what makes a blend a Chianti Classico or a Supertuscan - seeing the fabulous cellars, learning how to pair wine with food, and understanding the different approaches and techniques the vintners use!

Crown your wine tasting in Tuscany with a memorable, typically Tuscan wine-pairing luncheon held in the fascinating ambiance of the elite boutique winery: soul-satisfying flavors paired with the finest estate wines, a perfect crescendo end to a rich wine-scented day!
