Beautiful-Countryside-Drive-And-Wine-Tasting-In-Tuscany | Roman Vacations

This tour begins at a location of your choosing within Florence’s city center,* where you will meet your expert, local guide. From here, your guide will drive you through the gorgeous, rolling hills of Tuscany while sharing with you the histories that have shaped the landscape and influenced the Tuscan lifestyle.

The first stop on your tour is the Corbucci Wine Boutique, where you will meet your gracious hosts and wine experts. Here, in an enchanting, Tuscan countryside villa surrounded by rustic olive groves and elysian vineyards, your hosts will take you on an exploration of their exceptional wine collection.

On this wine-tasting tour, you will sample some of the region’s best prosecco, rosé, and a variety of Tuscan red wines. Every glass is perfectly paired with local cured meats, cheeses, and various homemade pasta dishes (please inform us if you have any dietary restrictions).

As you make your way through the villa’s multiple tasting rooms, you will discover that the Corbucci Wine Boutique not only produces excellent wine, they also make several other exceptional products, including limoncello, grappa, olive oil, and balsamic vinegar. All products are made from the finest, local ingredients and crafted with expert care.**

All good things must come to an end, and so must the wine-tasting portion of your tour. But there is no better way to conclude a wine-tasting experience than with a little more wine. To finish what promises to be an already wonderful experience, your gracious hosts will invite you to join them in raising a glass of Vin Santo—a traditional Tuscan dessert wine—to send you off with a sweet goodbye.

After your thirst has been quenched and appetites sated, your guide will drive you to the beautiful medieval town of San Gimignano, where you will be afforded some time to stroll the quintessentially Tuscan streets—a perfect place for an unforgettable photo opportunity. While soaking in the rustic charm of this unique hilltop town, we recommend grabbing a scoop of “the world’s most famous gelato” at the Gelateria Dondoli. As the afternoon comes to a close, your guide will drive you back to Florence.
