In the hills of the gorgeous Tuscan countryside, just 2kms away from the medieval center of Siena, this Educational Wine Tour and Tasting 'Vine, Wine and Life' is a 3-hour tour held in an organic winery. Learn about the different stages of wine making through the seasons and enjoy tastings and a light lunch.
From the operator’s live schedule on Viator, checked Oct 14.
In a very simple way, directly in the vineyards, we will talk about the agronomic cycle of our organic grapes with the help of genetics, physiology, ecology, pruning, handling of the soil and harvesting.
In the cellar we will take into consideration the basic concepts for a quality wine making, analyzing the chemical, physical and microbiological details of our wines, during all the main steps of the process from grape to wine: stemming-crushing, alcoholic fermentation, maceration, malolatic fermentation, racking off, stabilizing, bottling and refinement.
In our equipped tasting room we will taste 4 of our organic wines, all typical of the area, in order to understand all the sensorial notes with the help of our eyes, nose and palate. A triumph of perceptions to exalt what we love most about wine: the complex world of emotions.
The tasting will end up with a “light-lunch” combining wine and food. We will offer seasonal menus in order to satisfy the palate and keep a health body, combining food with one of our wines and with our organic extra-virgin olive oil.

One of our favorite winery vists. This is a small winery, just outside of Siena. We took a taxi to and from, I believe it was on the order of €12-€15 one way. Our guide was Lorenzo, the wine maker. He was very informative and very engaging. We got the wine tasting plus light lunch and it was a great combination. The food was very good. And we shipped some wine hime! We totally recommend this visit
Beautiful vineyard, amazing wine, amazing food, and Lorenzo is an amazing guide! We had an amazing day and would highly recommend!
It was an amazing tour that utilized the three hours with brilliant information, extraordinary tastings, great food in a warm, friendly atmosphere. Dario explained that winemaking is a science and we learned so much. This is a well priced time worthy tour that we would suggest to anyone to sign up for.
Superb. Dario was our guide. He is a wealth of knowledge. He is passionate about the wine industry and vineyard, and taught me more than I ever learned at several other wine tours. The wine pairings were exceptional, and the pours were quite generous. The food was amazing. The setting is exquisite. The day was relaxed and unhurried. Dario is personable and answers our many questions, reflecting his extraordinary knowledge. Highly recommend.
It was a great day all of the wines were very good and Dario was informative and passionate guide. The property was beautiful and our lunch was incredible.
Great tour, delicicious light lunch and fantastic wine. The guide (Dario) was knowledgeable, humorous and was generous with his time and insight. This is a small Tuscan winery with great traditional and modern wines . Intimate experience with fellow tourists and enthusiasts. If you are looking for a wine tasting experience lasting for around three hours (or more) and find yourself in the Siena area, I could not recommend this more. Oh and the wine is pretty damn good too...
Fantastic! Amazing wine, fantastic food and good company! Very informative tour and a beautiful scenery!
The tour was fantastic and informative. The wine was delicious. We ordered a case! The food was phenomenal. That ravioli might have been the best food we had in all of Italy! Would 100% recommend!
We loved our wine tasting experience. Lorenzo was very knowledgeable and entertaining. The food was lovely and the wine was amazing.
We had such a wonderful experience at La Lastra Winery in Siena! Lorenzo was welcoming, knowledgeable and passionate about the wines and the winery. He made our entire experience fun, relaxed and informative. We had excellent wines and food! The setting is beautiful, the wines were excellent, and pared well with what we ate. We would highly recommend this tour.
