About this tour

Spend two hours at this independently-owned Tuscan winery, where three to five wines flow straight from their own vineyards into your glass. Walk through the barrel room and production facility, watching how they work with organic grapes and minimal intervention. Pair each pour with local charcuterie, aged cheeses and fresh bread. It's a straightforward afternoon of tasting and conversation, no crowds.

What to expect

You'll arrive at a family operation that's been refining their craft for years. After a brief welcome, you'll move into the cellars themselves—no PowerPoint, just the barrels and tanks where their wine sits. The owner or winemaker walks you through what's happening in each vessel, then you settle in to taste. Three to five wines come out in sequence, each paired with cold cuts, cheeses and bread. The pace is relaxed; ask questions about what you're tasting and they'll answer them. Two hours covers the tour, tasting and conversation comfortably.

Good to know

Bring comfortable shoes for the cellar walk. You'll need your own transport to the winery. Children and prams are welcome, and service dogs can accompany you. No particular fitness level required.
