Bolgheri Food & Wine + Vineyard Tour
Start your day with a visit to a stunning winery on “La Strada del Vino” nestled among rolling hills and the blue Mediterranean Sea. We’ll stroll through magnificent vineyards and an impressive cellar guided by the owners, and learn about the prestigious Bolgheri wine region. Here we will taste 5 of their best wines.
After visiting the winery, we take a short drive to reach the unique 12th century village of Bolgheri where we’ll browse through its picturesque alleys and local specialty shops. We will discover the 17th century cellar hidden inside its castle and taste their world famous Bolgheri DOC wines along with extra virgin olive oil.
After the visit to the cellar, we’ll have a delicious lunch and while you sample authentic food and drink more wine in one of our favorite restaurants, we’ll tell you stories of the locals, wine and traditional cuisine. We’ll complete our day with the best home-made gelato and a freshly brewed coffee.
