This tour will take us to the South of Siena to the famous area of Brunello di Montalcino. We'll start our journey as always in Siena and follow the windy roads of the Crete Senesi - the famous rolling hills of Southern Siena.
Our first stop will be in one of our favorite wineries in Montalcino where we will be shown the vineyards, cellars and enjoy the tasting together with the owner of the winery. This is a unique experience to enjoy a Montalcino winery from the inside in very intimate surroundings. We'll head for lunch in another renowned winery to have a typical Tuscan lunch prepared with local ingredients by knowledgeable locals. Sit back and enjoy the delicious feast while we pour the wines and tell the stories of Montalcino.
The trip continues up the hill to Montalcino where we will stop to have a stroll around the village. We'll sample honey from Montalcino in a local farmer's store - the honey of sunflowers, chestnut, lavender, and more...
