Découvrir Brunello Wines

We spent two amazing days exploring Tuscany with our wonderful driver and guide, Emanuele, and we truly cannot recommend him highly enough. He created an experience that was both luxurious and deeply authentic, and every moment felt perfectly curated. From the medieval charm of San Gimignano, to the vibrant history of Siena, Emanuele brought each location to life with his knowledge, stories, and local connections. One of the most special moments was our time in Siena’s Owl Contrade . Thanks to Emanuele, we were invited into this proud and historic neighborhood to learn about the traditions of the Palio and the deep sense of community that defines the Contrade. It felt like stepping into living history. On Day 2, we visited Pienza—full of Renaissance beauty and pecorino delights—before driving through the stunning Val d’Orcia to Montalcino. The absolute highlight there was our visit to Martoccia Vineyard & Winery. They all were so warm and welcoming, and the wines—especially the Brunello di Montalcino were unforgettable. It was an intimate, beautiful setting and a truly world-class tasting experience. Emanuele handled every detail with care and professionalism, while also being fun, engaging, and a joy to be around. He turned a tour into a lifelong memory. If you’re traveling to Tuscany, do yourself a favor and book Emanuele. This experience will stay with you forever.

Our tour guide Emanuele made our stay in Siena an unforgettable experience. Highly knowledgeable in the wine region of Tuscany with a down to earth personality that will make you feel at home. Don’t waste your time in selecting another tour guy, Emanuele is the best !!!!

We had a fantastic day with Emanuelle as our guide. Two amazing vineyards with great wines. Lunch at the second vineyard could not have been better, great food, lovely wines and beautiful scenery. Emanuelle was an excellent guide who really worked hard to show us everything we wanted - we would highly recommend

While visiting Siena, we had an excellent day touring the Montalcino region and visiting three wineries, led by our expert sommelier and driver, Emanuele. He was friendly, considerate and knowledgeable, and took us to three wineries (Pino, Fanti and Innocenti), each distinct, but all producing quality wines with particular focus on Brunello di Montalcino. The wine makers and guides were helpful and shared their knowledge generously. We had a delicious lunch (while tasting wines and olive oils) at the Fanti vineyard. And of course we got to see and learn more of this lovely part of Tuscany.

It was our second wine tour with Emanuele. Always attentive and super friendly, he took us through the wonderful landscapes of Tuscany to discover the famous Brunello of Montalcino! We had the opportunity to visit a smaller family winery and a larger one, where we enjoyed a harmonized lunch and also tasted the excellent olive oil produced there. And, to top it off, we also went to see little Monteriggioni and, at the end, Pienza. A delicious day that will certainly be remembered! It was the right solution for those of us who didn't want to drive and, therefore, we were able to better enjoy the landscape and, of course, the wines!

We had a fantastic wine tour with Emanuele, we visited 3 vineyards, each one was special, although different. We had the opportunity to taste local wines including Brunello di Montalcino. It was the first time I’d tasted Brunello and I wasn’t disappointed. We had lunch at the second vineyard, meats and cheese to start with, pasta for main course, then cake, biscuit and meringue for dessert. All beautiful presented and excellent service. Emanuele is a sommelier and is from Siena so he’s very knowledgeable about wines and the local area. We particularly enjoyed hearing about Siena’s history, it was great to get an insight into the traditions around the Palio and contrade. Emanuele is excellent company and he works very hard to ensure you have a great day. We’d highly recommend his wine tour.

Emanuele is a wonderful tour guide! He is extremely professional, warm and kind. He is very educated, and so passionate about the history and the process of winemaking. We toured three fantastic Brunello wineries near Montalcino. We also had an amazing lunch with a wine pairing at a winery with spectacular views. You will be so happy to have Emanuele as your tour guide!

We had a wonderful day in Tuscany! The guides are knowledgeable and accommodating when our group of 9 decided we wouldn’t go to the 3rd vineyard because the three small kids in our group were tired (okay maybe the adults had just had too much delicious wine!). They picked us up at our hotel in Siena and provided a wonderful time for all. Highly recommend!

We had the honour of being Emanuel’s first wine tour of the 2024 season in early April. He picked us up in Siena and drove us through the Tuscan countryside to visit three distinctly different Brunello wineries near Montalcino. Emanuel’s personal contacts, knowledge and charming personality made this day a highlight of our trip. On very short notice, he was able to arrange tastings with the owners of two of the wineries (because staff were preparing for a big wine show in Verona the next day) and a wonderful lunch overlooking the vineyards of another. He spent over 8 hours with us, with unwavering enthusiasm. We highly recommend Emanuel as a tour guide!

My sister and I had an amazing time learning about the area and all that goes into making the delicious wine here. Emmanuel was very pernsonable and fun! We would 100% tour with him again :)
