About this tour
This 75-minute experience takes you into the heart of Chianti Fiorentino, just 15 minutes from Florence's centre. A knowledgeable guide walks you through the winemaking craft at Diadema Winery, then across to Frantoio Villa l'Olmo to watch traditional olive pressing with granite millstones. You'll taste five Super Tuscan IGT wines and two extra virgin oils against panoramic Tuscan views, finishing with a professional tasting that rounds out everything you've learned about the region's signature products.

What to expect
You'll start with a guided walkthrough of the winery's cellars and production areas, learning how Super Tuscan wines are made and aged. Then it's across to the olive mill, where you can observe the granite millstone pressing process firsthand—a working demonstration, not just talk. Finally, you'll settle into the panoramic tasting area where the guide leads you through five wines and two oils in a structured tasting format. It's hands-on but unhurried; expect to spend time observing and discussing rather than rushing between stops.
Good to know
Wheelchair accessible throughout. Public transport nearby if you're coming from Florence without a car. Wines are included, so plan accordingly if you're driving. The tasting room sits outdoors on a hillside, so bring something warm for cooler months.
