Experience an authentic Tuscan cooking class in the countryside of San Gimignano, hosted by Massimo, sommelier and local cooking experience host.
The experience takes place at Casalchino, a historic rural estate along the ancient Via Francigena route, surrounded by vineyards, cypress trees, rolling hills, and panoramic Tuscan views.
In a relaxed small-group setting, you will prepare fresh handmade pasta using local and seasonal ingredients while discovering Tuscan traditions, local wines, and the simple hospitality of the countryside.
During the class, we will prepare:
Bruschetta with fresh tomatoes and basil
Handmade egg noodles
Seasonal Tuscan sauce
Homemade tiramisu
At the end of the experience, everyone gathers around the table for a shared Tuscan lunch paired with local wines such as Vernaccia di San Gimignano or Chianti Colli Senesi, along with water and coffee.
From the panoramic setting of Casalchino, the view opens across the Val d’Elsa countryside toward the Chianti hills.
Main entrance to Casalchino – Fattoria La Torre, along the provincial road. Look for the cypress-lined driveway, the iron totem sign ‘Wine Art Boutique – Fattoria La Torre,’ and the stacked wine barrels near the entrance. Free parking is available at the entrance.
