Gourmet Tour - Wine Tasting & Lunch At San Miniato

DETAILS

    hrs Estimate Duration
  • Meal

Spend hours relaxing, dining and enjoying a wine tasting at a Tuscan estate that the Bonaparte family once owned in San Miniato. A wonderfully panoramic drive through the idyllic countryside will bring you to Cosimo Maria Masini, a winery that follows biodynamic agricultural principles that increase the soil’s fertility, resulting in high-quality, naturally healthy crops. While touring the vineyards and wine cellar, you will gain an understanding of biodynamics and how it applies to viticulture. Biodynamically grown grapes tend to be much more expressive than grapes grown through other means. You will taste the difference while lingering over a lunch that may include, bruschetta, cheeses and cantuccini almond biscuits. Up to three complementary wines from the estate will also be served. A red varietal made entirely from Sangiovese grapes and a white blend with herbal notes are possible choices. Afterwards, you may explore the estate on your own.


HIGHLIGHTS
• Gain an understanding biodynamic agriculture at a centuries-old estate and winery.
• Enjoy a leisurely meal paired with complementary wines from the estate.


HELPFUL HINTS
• Dress in weather-appropriate clothing.
