Private Tour: Weinverkostung in Montalcino

Francesco made our winery tour an absolutely wonderful experience from start to finish. He was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and made everyone feel comfortable right away. His knowledge of the wineries, wine-making process, local history, and the region was impressive, and he shared everything in a way that was engaging and easy to understand. What really stood out was his passion and enthusiasm, which made the tour feel personal and memorable rather than just another excursion. He was attentive to our group, answered all of our questions, and went above and beyond to ensure we had a fantastic time. Thanks to Francesco, this was one of the highlights of our trip. We left with a greater appreciation for the wines, the region, and the people who make it so special. We highly recommend Francesco to anyone looking for an enjoyable, informative, and unforgettable winery tour experience! 🍷

Fantastic tour. Francesco was very knowledgeable and a great host. We went to 3 great family wineries and had amazing food.

Phenomenal. So informative. Very personable.

Our driver and host, Francesco, was a wonderful leader and shared his humor and knowledge of the area readily. We visited two wineries, a large estate and a smaller family run estate where we had lunch and pairing with the wines. Francesco introduced us to a new way of experiencing a wine tasting with emphasis on the palette and wine effects. He also tried to give us some words to describe the tastes and smells, very thoughtful and elegantly expressed.

What a great tour! Francesco was an amazing guide showing our group of wine newbies how Tuscans thoughtfully craft and enjoy wine. 10/10 would go back for another tour anytime

I was fortunate enough to have two days with Francesco - one day to Montalcino for wine tasting and the next day the olive oil experience including even more wine tasting. First - what a lovely man he is - a trained sommelier, he educated us about the wines but without making us feel foolish for our lack of knowledge. He took us to three wineries which were incredible, each in their own way and we had a delicious lunch. Then our second day we did olive oil tasting and learned all about the process, how it’s made, what to took for in selecting an oil and so forth. I would take his tours again and again - I wish him nothing but the best.

Francesco was terrific. Highly recommend. Smart, funny, knowledgeable and a great teacher. He could play to both the novices and the experts in our group. We enjoyed two terrific vineyards - one a larger producer, well appointed and sophisticated - and another smaller producer, hands on and multigenerational. Two very different experiences - both excellent. The tour ended with some time enjoying the streets of amazing Montepulciano. Really terrific day.

Highly recommend this tour. Francesco was amazing! He was so knowledgeable that we left knowing so much more about wine, the region, and more. All three wineries were so friendly and were family wineries that truly care about the work they do. I would recommend this to anyone.

We had an absolutely wonderful tour with Francesco. He was so knowledgeable and we had an amazing time!

We had a wonderful day in beautiful Tuscany enjoying delicious quality wines, making new friends and learning anew things about food and wine that we wish we’d learned years ago. Our guide Francesco shared a wealth of knowledge about the area and gave us a sampling of different styles of wine/wine making, while making our day an experience we’ll never forget
