Settle in a luxurious Mercedes minivan and head towards the rolling hills of the Chianti wine region. Follow an expert sommelier through 2 famous local wineries and 1 small boutique winery. The tour will open up a wealth of knowledge about Tuscan wines, including the wine-making process, how to combine ingredients to balance flavors, and the perfect wine pairings that go with your favorite dishes.

By the end of the experience, you will know how to distinguish between Tuscany’s own Chianti Classico and the other regional varieties, as well as identify the differences between the acidity, aromas, and flavors of the various types of grapes grown here.

Explore the world of Super Tuscan wines that can be made with either pure grapes or blended grapes. These are signature wines of specialized vineyards and are difficult to find outside the latest vintage. Discover the behind-the-stage production processes in the fascinating settings of medieval castles and noble villas. And of course, you will taste one Super Tuscan wine at each winery you visit.
