Toscaanse kookcursus van 3 uur met wijn- en olieproeverij

Great class with knowledgeable chef. Food was delicious and wine tasting was so good. Highly recommend!

Like cooking in your Italian Nonna's kitchen and tasting Nonno's best wines. If at all possible, you MUST stop here! In the cooking class , you learn to make an authentic meal, dessert included, for your family and friends. Taste what GOOD olive oils are supposed to taste like . The wines were superb! -- to the palette and eye. Be prepared to be treated like family while relaxing in the peaceful Tuscan countryside --- treat yourself ; you owe it to yourself; you deserve it!

My husband & I enjoyed the experience we had from start to finish with Chef Leonardo leading us in making an appetizer, pasta dishes and a truffle tiramisu dessert. We enjoyed the courses with a wine & olive oil tasting. This was a true highlight of our trip to Italy.

Absolutely a must! The staff was warm and welcoming. The views are breathtaking. The wine was so good we ordered 3 cases!! Highly recommend!

Hands down my favorite experience on our trip to Italy! My husband and I spent two weeks in Italy, with 4 days in Tuscany and I decided to book this cooking class and wine tasting. The first thing you notice when you enter Podere la Marronaia is the extremely friendly staff. They showed us to the kitchen we'd be using and introduced us to Leonardo, our chef instructor for the class. Leonardo was absolutely wonderful! He was so kind and patient. He explained all of the dishes we would be preparing, showed us all the ingredients, answered questions about different cooking methods, quality of ingredients, etc. You can see the view outside the entire time and it is absolutely magical! The winery is just outside of San Gimignano and it absolutely stunning everywhere you look. We prepared 4 different types of bruschetta, pici pasta with a fresh cherry tomato sauce, gnocchi with a zucchini sauce, and the most perfect tiramisu truffles! We were able to eat at a table outside and take in the gorgeous view. Our lunch included a sampling of wine, olive oil, and the best balsamic vinegar I have ever tasted in my life! This cooking class fell on Mother's Day, we were the only two participants that day, and it was completely magical! We were able to order wine and balsamic and have it shipped back to the U.S. and it arrived so quickly. Being at Podere la Marronaia feels like stepping into a fairytale. It's a place to just be present in the moment, transform simple ingredients into something truly special, breathe it all in, and just enjoy life!

We absolutely had the best time! The wine, oils, food and knowledge shared was amazing- if you visit this winery you won't be disappointed! We placed an order to be shipped home and it arrived safely- And reordered! Everything was perfect. Thank you so much!

Great experience!! It was so much fun. Such a great feeling to enjoy the cooking with some amazing wine.

My husband and I have been in Italy for 2 weeks, we’re spending 5 days in Tuscany and this was the best excursion I planned. Our chef Leonardo was wonderful. What we learned was great and we can’t wait to go home and try to make it for our family. All the recipes were simple but when the food was cooked and we ate it was delicious! Then we had our wine tasting which was heavenly in the vineyard and our olive oil tasting was even better. Then we ate our dinner we prepared under the Tuscan sun just like in a movie. Overall my favorite part of the trip. We even keep recommending the winery to everyone we meet here in Italy.

Dreams come true! I dont think I can adequately describe how perfect this experience was. For years, my mom dreamed of coming to Italy with the family. A cooking class, wine tasting, olive oil tasting were all on the dream list. We were finally able to go, but there was only 1 wine class in Tuscany that would allow the (2) toddlers in our group. Thanks to Podere La Marroniaia, we were able to do it. Not only was the cooking experience amazing, but the table set up, wine tasting, olive oil/balsamic tasting was just top tier. We all cried during the experience out of joy. I am forever grateful for my experience. Thank you so much for making it happen.

I always include this wonderful winery when I am in Italy, especially bringing family and friends. They have grown quite a bit over the years, but it has not diminished the experience or their wines. Whether its sitting out on the lawn and enjoying the views of San Gimignano or the private dining room, you will be treated like family. They offer many wines and you will certainly find something to your liking as well as the newer additions of olive oils and balsamic vinegar. The new cooking class was great fun!
