This day trip will bring you to Montalcino and to the heart of the valley “Val d’Orcia”, recognized by the UNESCO as world heritage, you will discover the world’s famous Rosso & Brunello di Montalcino DOCG wines and then you will enjoy a great Italian Barbecue at a local wine & meat farm with view on the stunning Orcia valley.

The tour starts in the north-east part of Montalcino where you will visit a recently built winery with female charm. You will visit the winery and taste 3 of their elegant wines. After this great start, you will move to a historic winery of Montalcino, where you will taste 5 wines, of course Rosso & Brunello di Montalcino, but also the historic Moscadello di Montalcino.

At the end of the two visits you will already be very hungry, so why don’t finish your stay in the Orcia valley with a great Italian Barbecue? This lunch is organized by a small family farm and winery where you can visit the livestock of the animals raised with care by the family Pieri. During lunch the family introduces you in their local meat production and later you visit their winery where they explain to you the characteristics of the Montecucco DOC production.

After a digestive Italian Espresso you will leave the Orcia Valley at 4:30pm and turn back to Florence.
