Come on a wine tour in Tuscany!
Tuscany is the largest region, producing quality wines, of Italy. It has
many sub regions,
known as "denominations" that are worth visiting, some rather famous (DOCGs) and
some that are upcoming (DOCs). They all share the fact that each appellation
and its region is distinct in its wine making and therefore no same wine is
made in two separate sub regions.
As each wine region is unique, you will
find a proposal of day tours to 5 different wine regions. If you are intending to
book a private wine tour, you can freely choose your region of interest. In
this regard, I might add that you should probably also consider your
location in Tuscany when choosing the tour - because not all regions are as
close as they might look on a map - if in doubt please do not hesitate to
contact me and together we can work out the best suited itinerary for you.
If you are not up to a private tour and you are staying in or around Florence
you could join one of
my fun
small group wine tours that have a fixed
price - or another option is that you could simply want to split a private tour with
fellow travelers. You can check out your options on
this web-site and if you need
advice you caan write to me for individual advice. Whatever way you choose to do
your tour,
it is guaranteed to be informative, enjoyable and at the same time
relaxing.
The wineries that I choose to go to are usually of the smaller, family run
kind, that make excellent wines (when possible they
will be organic or biodynamic) and so we will have the opportunity to
discuss wines and wine making with the actual owner or enologist.
The tours are mostly about wine, logically,
but there will be a chance to taste and shop for local products, olive oil and,
possibly, sample traditional balsamic
vinegars of Modena.
These are the regions selected for you with sample itineraries. It would be
possible to organize similar trips to other regions also.

| This is with no doubt the most prestigious wine region and superb appellation that we have in Italy, noteworthy for its deep and complex red wines that are worth aging for decades. The region of the famous Brunello di Montalcino is in the South of Tuscany, so not as easy to reach, but it is by all means very much worth the longer ride. |
| This is the third red wine region that is proposed. It's hidden well into Southern Tuscany and surrounds the adorable town of Montepulciano. The "noble wine from Montepulciano" historic origins made it one of the first wines of Tuscany for trade. It's an area well worth visiting and the wines are considered well worth the price. |
