Wine Tours:
Experience
the beauty and sensuality of the Italian countryside
Visit
the vineyards of Italy once, and you'll fall in love for a lifetime.
Tuscany is one of the most beautiful and culturally rich wine
regions in the world, and we'll include its most famous sites,
as well as its secret treasures, on your tour.
Begin in
Florence, and travel through the lovely backroads of Chianti
Classico. Why not visit the beautiful city of Siena,
before enjoying tastings at the finest
estates of Brunello and Vino Nobile de Montepulciano (like
highly-rated Poggio Antico or Avignonesi). Watch
peccorino cheese being made at the farm, and enjoy free time to
explore the medieval villages of Pienza, San Gimignano or Cortona along the
way. Then on to coastal Maremma, home to the famous
"Super Tuscans", where you'll enjoy VIP
tastings at the very best vineyards like Ornellaia, Tua Rita or Petra.
Gorgeous, luxurious villa-hotels
will be specially
chosen for your tour: for example, the
fairytale-like Locanda dell'
Amorosa, and in the Maremma, the elegant and lovely Villa Il
Tessoro.
Sample the finest local cuisine at top restaurants, including meals at the wineries you'll be visiting.
Tours in Piedmont (home to one of
the world's greatest wines, Barolo), Veneto or Italy's other
fabulous wine regions are also available.
