Immerse yourself in the heart of Tuscany with a Brunello wine tour through the picturesque countryside surrounding Montalcino. Start your day at a boutique winery where you’ll stroll through the vineyards, explore the cellars, and enjoy a guided tasting while learning about this prestigious wine. Continue to Montalcino itself, a historic hilltop town offering sweeping views of the valley below. Take some time to climb the fortress walls, visit local wine bars, and browse charming shops. Then visit the ancient Benedictine abbey of Sant’Antimo, a peaceful and often-overlooked spiritual site surrounded by rolling hills. Listen for the ethereal Gregorian chants sung by monks. At midday, head to a family-owned winery and farm to enjoy a traditional Tuscan meal paired with locally produced wines. After lunch, your tour continues with a third winery, where you’ll learn about winemaking tools, how vines are cultivated, and the importance of oak barrel aging for Brunello wine. Wrap up the experience with another intimate tasting session and a greater appreciation of this world-class wine region.
