This winery tour was very informative, included amazing views of the Tuscan countryside and, of course, wonderful wines. The guide, Emma, was delightful! She made sure everyone was engaged and understanding the story she was sharing with us. My daughter and I were visiting from the USA and would recommend this tour! Between us we purchased many bottles of wine!

A great tour. Very informative and not a sales event. We felt very comfortable and welcome and learned a lot. The people were incredibly friendly and welcoming.

Lovely intimate tour of the winery. We saw the wine making process in action and the tasting part of the tour was extensive and generous.

Amazing experience, an excellent day in Montalcino with interesting information about wine and its processes... Super recommended
