We had an incredible day. For many reasons, including several wonderful wines, but especially because Luca was the most amazing guide of a thousand talents. He picked us up and drove us to the winery and told us so much about the region on the way. Same for the history of the Fattoria S. Pancrazia winery. Which had the most amazing view of the Tuscan countryside. Luca was very knowledgeable about the wines and discussed them in a very approachable, unpretentious way. And then there was the food! The antipasto tray was a great selection that complemented the wines perfectly. And we learned about the magic of arugula-pesto on crostini. Then he made us a great pasta dish to go with several of the winery’s reds. So, in summary: beautiful old winery with spectacular view. Wonderful wines and food. And a great guide that made it informative and fun.
Beautiful day in the Italian countryside. Loving slow and basking in the Tuscan sun. The vineyard is small and personal, the wine is just what you want from this experience. Our guide was very knowledgeable and did a great job of helping us understand life on the vineyard.
I was traveling with my 18yr granddaughter. I love wine and wanted to teach her about good wine. She can not drink in the USA legally at 18yr but she can in Italy. The total group was maybe 10 people. We arrive in two vans. 8 went on Vesba tour. My granddaughter and I had a tour of the winery and vineyard. Sampled 6 wines and had a wine lesson by a sommelier. He also taught at Florence University. Very informative and friendly. Good group of people. Would do it again.
We took the trip to Chianti from Florence. Luca was our driver and so funny, entertaining, and made the trip worthwhile. Iris was at the winery and guided us through the wine and food pairing. Overall a very fun experience
It was very well put together. Our guide was so knowledgeable and the wines were fantastic !! Highly recommend
Luca, sommelier at Frattorio S. Pancrazio was an outstanding guide. He shared interesting history of the vineyard, provided practical lessons in wine tasting and was a gracious host. I would definitely recommend this tour.
Amazing Tuscan experience visitng a beautiful winery overlooking the Italian countryside. The wine was phenomenal and the hosts were great. My wife and I really enjoyed the tour and tasting on this small semi-private tasting.
Great wine tour with amazing guides, perfect timing too. Got to experience a bit of Florence wine country with plenty of time back in the city afterwards.
Good tour guide, winery tour and tasting. However for the high price we had expected to see more of the Tuscan country side and have a spectacular lunch. The ride was 15-20 minutes in the city, and the lunch was average. This tour was very poor value compared to tours we had in other cities during our 17 day trip across northern Italy. For example, this tour was $595 for the two of us vs our Murano and Burano island tour for $142. We saw and experienced more on the island tour for 1/4 of the price.
Dear Don, Thank you for your review. What else to add here, maybe a pizza in Naples is cheaper than Florence. Your tour was on January 1st at 10am, a New Years Day, the price you payed reflected our holiday rates. all the best Dejan
Loved the wine tasting experience The guides were amazing, informed us about the entire making process and history of each wine It would strongly recommend this trip!
