This was a very nice wine tour. The tour took us to small wine producers that would be unable to reach otherwise. The tour guide was very knowledgeable and we truly enjoyed our tour!
Hi Deborah, thanks for your beautiful words! I hope to meet you again next years. Brunello 2020 will be a very great vintage! See you soon Nadia
This review is very difficult to write because this was my second tour with Nadia in five years. The tour itself is lovely and the wine is fantastic. We loved it so much we bought 18 bottles to be shipped home. Unfortunately that is where my review turns negative. We paid 190 Euro to have wine shipped by Nadia back to the US. The wine arrived and to our disappointment our shipment was missing the most expensive, reserve vintage we purchased. In addition, Nadia shipped the wine listed as "Italian Virgin Olive Oil" which cost a total of 24 Euro. I reached out to Nadia immediately after the wine arrived requesting she ship our final bottle and following up two separate times over the course of the next two months without any response. In total we lost ~$300 dollars and this is after paying $620 for the two people on the tour and leaving Nadia a generous tip. We will not be using Nadia's services ever again after this experience and it is a real shame because coming out of the tours my review would have been vastly different had the shipment been handled professionally.
Dear Cathy, I'm really sorry to read your words. I'm sorry but I have to tell you that what you write is not correct. I sent, as I always do with all my customers, the bottles that you left at my office with the courier with which I have been shipping for 10 years now. I have never had any problems, all my shipments arrived regularly. Whether the shipment was made as "olive oil" does not depend on me, but on the courier I only offer a "Free" service where I take care of bringing the bottles to the courier, then the courier takes care of the shipping I checked with Costanti the wines that you bought during the visit to the company and he confirmed that you did not buy the bottle of Riserva (the most expensive as you write). No bottles left in my office of the ones you bought during the tour Honestly, I'm really sorry for what happened, but I don't feel absolutely responsible In any case, if you return to Montalcino, I will be happy to help you by offering you another visit to the cellar for free. a warm greeting from Montalcino
We actually did three tours with Nadia. Two were intimate dinners at a winery with a tour beforehand. The food, wine, and ambience were awesome! Of course, the weather was perfect and the full moon was out, just to add to the events. The other tour with Nadia was a full day of visiting four vineyards with lunch. Nadia knows all of the locals, picks out the ones best suited for the day (since it was near harvest time) and always delivers. We have connected with Nadia for two separate trips and will definitely book her on our next trip to Montalcino. She speaks excellent English, so she can help with any interpretation issues that may come up. I hesitate to give to glowing a report, because I am afraid she will get all booked up for our next trip back to Italia. But I cannot give high enough praise to Nadia and her tours--you will be happy you chose to go with her. It is like having your local friend give you the tour.
Nadia is incredible and made this wine tour magnificent for us. Nadia is knowledgeable, takes you to the right places for the most delicious wine. Our last stop was a vineyard where we had a delicious lunch. Nadia I will recommend you to everyone that I know. Thank you so much for everything.

Nadia did an amazing job on our Montalcino Wine tour! She went above and beyond and planned a tour including four wineries, a lunch and ending with a four course meal on a terrace overlooking the vineyards. It was a perfect day!!
