What to expect
The morning begins in Castellina in Chianti. Your guide settles you into the nimble Fiat 500—a car that becomes part of the experience itself—and heads into the countryside. You'll stop at workshops and small producers, chatting with makers who've stayed in their villages. Roads wind through olive groves and vineyards. By mid-afternoon, you arrive at the estate. A walk through the cellars shows how they've made wine for generations. You then sit down to eat: antipasti, fresh pasta, roasted meats, cheese, fruit, all paired with their wines. It's unhurried and family-style.
