Overview

Live a unique experience in the heart of the Tuscan hills!
Have you ever been on a truffle hunt? Accompanied by our expert hunting guide and his hound Tep, along the paths of the woods, you will go in search of this precious tuber , you will know its qualities and learn how to use it best in the kitchen.
During the search you will know stories and anecdotes related to the territory, and following the truffle dog among the trees and shrubs, if you have patience, you can be lucky and find the rare white truffle, or the black one.
After the successful hunt we will head to a wine cellar in the area, where we will have a tasting of wine, oil and local products, with the pleasant view of the vineyards.
After there will be the time of the cooking lesson on truffles. A chef will show us how to prepare homemade pasta, which you will enjoy at sunset in a panoramic terrace, with a view of the Chianti hills and an excellent glass of wine in your hands.
