Itinerary
Your day begins in Florence, where you’ll be greeted by your expert guide. Settle into a premium Mercedes minibus for a scenic drive into the heart of Tuscany. As the city fades into rolling hills, your guide will set the stage, introducing you to the heritage of Chianti Classico—the perfect prelude to a day of sensory discovery.
Your first destination is a historic noble estate, framed by silver-leafed olive groves and towering cypresses. Step inside a masterfully preserved mill where centuries-old traditions meet modern precision. You’ll trace the journey of extra virgin olive oil from the branch to the press, followed by a professional tasting session. Learn to distinguish the nuances of terroir, texture, and aroma, and master the art of pairing oil with food like a true Tuscan.
Duration: 60 minutes
Continue to an exclusive boutique winery in the Chianti Classico heartland. Wander through sun-drenched vineyards and cool, historic cellars as your sommelier reveals the alchemy behind blending Sangiovese and Canaiolo. Enjoy a curated flight of selected vintages, learning to decode the structure, acidity, and aromatic finish of these world-class wines while overlooking the iconic countryside.
Duration: 60 minutes
No journey through Chianti is complete without a stop in one of its timeless villages. Enjoy free time to wander the cobblestone streets of an iconic Tuscan village, explore and soak in its atmosphere. Your guide will share local stories that bring the region’s history to life.
Duration: 30 minutes
The journey culminates at a scenic second estate for a 3-course gourmet lunch. Savor authentic regional dishes crafted from seasonal, local ingredients, each perfectly paired with estate wines. In an intimate, rustic setting, your sommelier will demonstrate how the high acidity and tannins of Chianti wines elegantly elevate the flavors of traditional Tuscan cuisine.
Duration: 120 minutes
As the afternoon sun casts long shadows over the vineyards, relax on your return journey to Florence. This is the perfect time to reflect on the day’s discoveries, soak in the final views of medieval castles, and ask your guide any remaining questions. You’ll return with more than just photos, perhaps even a few prized bottles for your own cellar.
