FULL DAY BRUNELLO DI MONTALCINO WINE TOUR
Private Experience
Our private tour itinerary starts by taking the ancient Roman road Cassia towards the famous wine hill of Montalcino.
The first stop is at a small and particular winery where we can walk among the vineyards, explore the cellars and enjoy an introductory tasting of the famous Brunello region wines.
We later arrive in Montalcino, the hill-town that gives its name to the region and its wines.
Here you have the opportunity of climbing the walls of the fortress where the brave soldiers of the Republic of Siena made their last stand to Florence and the Medici. Spend time visiting the town’s stores and wander around the city walls enjoying the incredible views overlooking the valleys and vineyards below.
After our visit to the town of Montalcino, stop to visit the stunning ancient mystical Benedictine Abbey of Sant’Antimo, a special place set in fabulous landscapes, which permeate peace and tranquility, truly one of the main wonders of Tuscany. Whenever possible you can witness the monks sing in Gregorian and enjoy the nature surrounding this abbey.
Arrive to a second family run winery where we are introduced to the owners and winemakers.
Visit of the farm before sitting down to enjoy a traditional Tuscan meal accompanied by the delicious wines produced here.
In the afternoon we visit a third boutique winery where we get a detailed description of the wine making processes, learn about the tools used, the way the vines are cared for and about the aging in oak barrels that this wine must have by law for many years. After visiting the cellars and getting to know the winemakers we sit down for our last tasting of this nectar of the gods.
Of the 230 such wineries of the area we normally choose to visit medium and small sized wineries as we believe that they make more characteristic artisanal wines that are harder to find and, to us, more complex and interesting than the mass produced wines of the large wineries.
