Visit to Tenuta Torciano Winery

Located in a strategic position between Florence and Siena, Tenuta Torciano is just a few minutes away from the medieval village of San Gimignano, among vineyards, woods and olive groves. You are in the heart of the Chianti region area where the scenery is breath taking and untouched as it was ages ago. The experience starts with a fascinating walk in the vineyards of Tenuta Torciano to get to know the family wine history. It then continues in the barrel room, where our wine expert will immerse you in the world of the wine.

You will taste all the most renowned wines - Vernaccia di San Gimignano, Chianti, Chianti Classico, Brunello di Montalcino and many more - pairing them with excellent food: local cheeses and cold cuts, bruschetta, lasagna, roasted meat and cantuccini biscuits. Our expert local sommelier will guide you on a tour of Tuscany’s diverse wine producing regions, showcasing wines from prestigious vineyards. Expect to leave with a deeper understanding of Italian wines and an educated palate!

Visit to San Gimignano town

Known as the Town of Fine Towers, San Gimignano is famous for its medieval architecture, unique in the preservation of about a dozen of its tower houses, which, with its hilltop setting and encircling walls, form an unforgettable skyline. The famous silhouette of San Gimignano is an enduring symbol of Tuscany. It’s also one of the most attractive and popular destinations in Italy, and a UNESCO heritage site. Here, you will have some free time to visit the historic center. When you enter the city from the old gate Porta San Giovanni, be ready to step back in time and breath in the Medieval air. The gorgeous Piazza Cisterna has a picturesque stone well at its centre. Meanwhile the adjacent Piazza Duomo is filled with architectural details that can keep you enthralled for hours. It’s a mixture of the romantic and the historic that appeals to every traveller.
