Excursion œnologique d’une demi-journée avec Brunello di Montalcino au départ de Sienne
Après un transfert dans l’après-midi, vous aurez la possibilité de déguster des vins prestigieux dans les meilleurs domaines vinicoles du territoire et de découvrir Montalcino et sa magnifique région. La dégustation sera accompagnée d’en-cas, comme de la charcuterie en tranches fines et du salami typique.
Le vin Brunello, considéré comme le vin le plus apprécié dans le monde entier, vient d’une ancienne tradition transmise d’une génération à l’autre. Une grande dextérité dans la cave à vin, qui inclut une longue maturation dans des fûts fabriqués à partir de bois précieux, a fait que le Brunello détient le titre d’ambassadeur italien dans le monde de la production de vin.
La ville de Montalcino, sanctuaire de ce vin produit à partir de raisins Sangiovese, se dresse sur une charmante colline qui vous permettra de vous délecter de ses paysages naturels équilibrés.
Vous serez transféré de retour à votre lieu d’hébergement par la suite.

Loved the morning part of the tour! Stefan made the tour very enjoyable and meeting Mario was a treat. Would give 5 stars but we did not particularly enjoy the second part of the tour. Felt that the proprietor of the wine shop was not very not very engaging and we actually were bored during that part. Thoroughly enjoyed walking around Moltacino! We did not get hotel pick up because we were not within the requirements, but Stefan went out of his way at the end of the tour to take us to where we had parked our car. Much appreciated.
This tour is not as described on the website. We were disappointed that we had no time to explore Montalcino and there is definitely not a guided tour involved. There are two wine tastings and one occurs in a wine store so if you want a true winery and tasting experience this is not it. We spent more time driving in the car listening to the guide speak Italian to one of the people in the group who also spoke Italian than anything else. Pretty disappointing.

Elio was a great tour guide. Kept us informed and even stepped in by telling us all about the winery when the staff was busy. I'd recommend this company to everyone.
Andrea, our local guide provided historical context back to Roman times and how the area developed into a preeminent wine region. Stop at a wine shop for a few tastings was a perfect set up to arriving at the small, special winery famous for worldclass Brunello. Our host signore Mario? Perfetto!
This was a good trip but could have been better. There are two wine tastings involved. The first takes place in a wine store and is informative but not a lot of fun. The second is an experience you will talk about for years to come. The owner Mario is just a joy and makes the trip so worth while. You get to go to Montalcino but you will not see a lot of it which is a real pity. I would recommend not doing the first wine tasting in the store and instead just walking around Montalcino and soaking up the atmosphere there instead. The wine tasting in the store is presented very professionally by the store but maybe its too professional. I'm on holiday after all. Its a good trip overall all though and good value. More time in Montalcino is needed though - please!
This tour is a great idea, but the drive from Siena was longer than advertised and so the trip became a bit long, not due to the wine tour, but the drive. Our guide, Daniel, was adequate as a driver, but offered very little in the way of tour information. Most of the tour took place in two locations, a wine retailer and a family wine operation. The tour itself was great, thus the four-star rating, with a stop in Montalcino at a commercial wine retailer, where we tasted a number of great Burnello's and then to a local, family-owned winery, for a personal tasting experience and guide with Mr. Mario, the wine master, who is 87 years old. It was special.
