After meeting some new friends during the drive into Tuscany, we will arrive at the first winery. Nestled into the hilltops of the Chianti region, your breath will be taken away by the mesmerizing views of the countryside.

We will follow him into the picturesque tasting room to enjoy 4-5 glasses of white and red wines, including various levels of Chianti wines. Enjoy some of the delightful flavors of Tuscany such as pecorino cheese, truffle oil, and balsamic vinegar accompanied by the wine. You will have the option to purchase and/or ship wine home from the winery! The wine tasting will last about an hour.

The second winery was nice but there were too many people at both and it felt industrial and impersonal.
