Embark on a half-day adventure of wine and olive oil tasting! Our local guides will lead you on a path in which history, art, and peasant culture merge to evoke the roots that have animated this land for millennia.
Chianti
This Chianti tour from Florence will allow you to explore the authenticity of the flavors of the Tuscan countryside and discover natural winemaking, to truly grasp the taste that a good glass of wine can convey. Visit the cellars of two of the most renowned wineries, taste the top products of local farms with local snacks, and be immersed in the unique atmosphere that this corner of Tuscany offers. You will be visiting wineries that not only offer a tasting that even true connoisseurs will enjoy with great pleasure, but you will also get to enjoy the wonderful surrounding landscapes, immersed in an enchanting and welcoming atmosphere. There is time to end the day with a walk to the Castellina in Chianti to breathe the air of the village and explore its typical shops.
Olive Oil
Enjoy the beautiful countryside, full of olive groves, as we explore a family-owned olive refinery where you will experience a unique olive oil testing, learn about olive oil production, and gain a new perspective on olive oil. Tuscany is the home of fine Italian oils: a blend of ancient olive varieties, the extra virgin olive oil from the Chianti area comes from the skillful combination of over 120 native qualities of olive trees. From a difficult land, peasant art has been able to draw the finest oil these fruits offer with unmateched olfactory sensations and an incomparable taste. Touch to understand, savor to discover. This is the impulse that animates the precious moments of the Chianti tour.
