A walled fortification was built by the city of Siena in the early 1200’s to protect it from the aggressive assaults of its northern nemice: Florence. There were originally 14 towers that dominated the hilltop keeping guard until the mid 1550’s when, with an almost unforgivable act of treason, the guardian of the city peacefully handed the key over to the Florentines and the Medici family.

Read on while Seila, wine expert and sommelier with the vineyard, gives you a bit of insight on what to expect from this adventure:
No one else can offer what you got?
That’s right, the best organic wines from our estate in the heart of the Chianti Classico area, a handcrafted delicacy found only in Tuscany.
What distinguishes your tasting from others?
This is a wine tasting adventure where the participants are active players, we encourage them to truly savor the different flavours till they have that sparkle in their eye, which tells us “they get it”. It is our job, as both producer and sommelier, to arm our guests with all the necessary tools to distinguish the tannins, the flavor of the aging process and to help them recognize the sensations that are happening in their mouths…and stomach!
Your Wine Experience is ready to start -Tuscany Wine Lovers
Can the teachers make a difference?
The wine is presented by people who have an invested interest in its history, and its production. Their title of sommelier is instrumental in communicating key factors the structure of the wine and about the delicate pairings with the local flavors.
What is so different about your wine tasting?
Firstly, we prefer to consider it a “wine education”. It needs to be said, not all wines are created equal and just within the confines of Tuscany, there are 100’s of different types of wine. Obviously, there is a reason for this! Some of it is the terroir, or the producer’s creativity, the variety of grapes and even the weather. And each wine has its perfect food combination. We want our guests to see how our wine exalts the natural flavours of the traditional recipes from this area, including its pasta, cheeses, jams, and salami.
Why do you do it?
Quite honestly, we are passionate about our wine and we want people to enjoy it. And. We are passionate about our traditions, both food, and culture. It is really my pleasure to introduce all of this “bontà” to guests who want to learn more about why this area is so special.
Wine Expert Seila & the Owner Alessandro leading your wine education
Where does all of this mixing & matching take place?
Ahhh… I won’t tell you the exact location, but I can tell you that it is one of the oldest “cantinas” or wine cellars in Chianti entrenched in the basement of one of the original noble Villa facing the main square! We believe it is an adventure you will always remember.
It’s gonna be the one and only wine bike tour Tuscany you don’t wanna miss!
