  • No fixed itinerary; guide adapts to your pace and interests

What to expect

Your driver collects you from your Florence accommodation and heads south toward Montalcino. En route, the landscape transforms into those famous undulating vineyards and lone farmhouses you've seen in photographs. At working wine cellars, you'll stand where wine is actually made—not in a tasting room but among barrels and equipment. Conversations with producers are unscripted; ask about their vintage, their family's history, their methods. You'll spend several hours across two or three estates, tasting at your pace. Lunch is your choice and cost; the driver can suggest a trattoria if you like. Expect a relaxed rhythm, much driving and looking, genuine contact with people who know their vines.

Good to know

Wine tastings are pay-on-site (€25–€30 per person). Bring sunscreen and comfortable shoes for cellar visits. Under-18s won't be served alcohol. The journey includes substantial driving time; it's not all wine tasting. Prams and infant seats available if needed.
