Leave Florence behind and immerse yourself in the breathtaking rolling hills of the UNESCO-listed Val d’Orcia on an exclusive full-day small-group Tuscan wine tour.
Your adventure begins in the picturesque countryside of Montepulciano with an authentic culinary experience at Vecchia Cantina di Montepulciano. Here, you will savor a traditional multi-course Tuscan lunch—featuring classic local appetizers, handmade ragù pasta or lasagna, and traditional cantucci biscuits paired with Vin Santo (vegetarian options available). Your meal is perfectly complemented by a guided tasting of three premier regional wines, including Riccio Toscana Bianco, Briareo Nobile di Montepulciano Riserva, and rich Vin Santo from Cantina del Redi.
After lunch, soak in the charm of Pienza, a Renaissance gem renowned for its panoramic valley views and boutique artisan shops during your free time. Your journey continues to historic Montalcino, the world-famous birthplace of prestigious Brunello di Montalcino wine, before concluding with a relaxing, scenic drive through Tuscany’s iconic landscapes back to Florence.
