About this experience
Let’s explore the so-called Colline Lucchesi and Montecarlo wine areas. This area is known not only for typical Tuscan Sangiovese and Trebbiano grapes, but also for French grapes productions, such as syrah, cabernet sauvignon, chardonnay and many others which are quite suitable for this soil. Some notable white and sparkling wines are also being produced. You will visit the vineyards and cellars of two estates and enjoy wine tasting and light lunch. You will also learn about the wine making and aging methods. On the way, you will be able to appreciate the beautiful Tuscan countryside and picturesque hilltop villages.
