Tasting with welcome Aperitivo in the vineyard of organic wines

About this tour

Walk through organic vineyards and heritage cellars in Tuscany before settling beneath an ancient oak for aperitivo and wine tasting. Over four hours, you'll sample eight wines—Vernaccia, Chianti, Vin Santo—paired with locally-made cheeses, cured meats, garden vegetables and the farm's own olive oil. The route takes you past centuries-old wine-making equipment and the vinsantaia, giving real context to what you're drinking.

• Aperitivo under oak tree during vineyard walk

What to expect

You'll start with a guided stroll through working vineyards and fields, stopping to rest and drink in the shade of a mature oak. From there, the group moves to the vinsantaia—the cellar where wines age traditionally—and past a collection of farming equipment that shows how things were done generations ago. The tasting follows: eight wines, mostly regional DOCG and IGT designations, each paired thoughtfully. Vernaccia comes first, then rosé and Chianti, finishing with Vin Santo alongside biscuits. Between pours, you'll nibble cheese, prosciutto and local salamis cut fresh, plus crunchy vegetables straight from the garden beds.
