Bolgheri Food & Wine Tour
Let’s walk together through the picturesque streets of Bolgheri, one of my favorite local spots near where we live, a unique 12th-century village and home to the world famous Super Tuscan wines. We’ll show you our favorite restaurants, shops and cafes where you’ll enjoy some local specialties from one of the best places to visit in Tuscany away from the crowds. While you sample delicious food, you’ll be learning about Tuscany’s rich culinary tradition. You’ll discover the hidden medieval wine cellar inside the castle with ancient brick vaults hugging dozens of wine barrels. You’ll taste two world-class Bolgheri wines, extra-virgin olive oil and end the day with authentic homemade gelato. We’d love to share our lives with you and tell you stories about local people, food, and wine. Join us and savor a taste of real Tuscany!
