About this tour
Spend a morning and early afternoon in Chianti Classico with a sommelier, visiting two family-owned wineries to learn how Tuscan reds are made and aged. You'll taste wines at both estates, then sit down to a lunch built from local producers—the kind of meal where the wine genuinely shapes what you eat. Pickup from Florence; back by early afternoon.
Highlights
- Two intimate winery visits in Chianti Classico heartland
- Sommelier-led tastings and cellar walkthroughs
- Lunch pairing local food with estate wines
- Learn olive oil production from pressing to bottle
- Private transport from Florence accommodation
What to expect
Your sommelier collects you from your Florence hotel and drives you into rolling vineyards. At the first winery, you'll walk the cellars, see barrels mid-ferment, and taste the current releases. The second estate offers similar access—no tour-group rush, just you and your guide. Between visits, a long table meal arrives: cured meats, fresh pasta, maybe roasted meat or cheese—all from producers within a few kilometres. Wines flow naturally alongside each course. You're tasting, not guzzling.
