Private Montalcino Truffle and Sommelier Tour from Florence

Begin the tour by meeting with your private driver and depart towards the southern part of Tuscany.

When you arrive you will meet your expert local guide, and start touring the magic jewel of Val D'Orcia, Castelmuzio! Then you will reach Montisi, where a sommelier will introduce you the secrets of truffles and all the properties of this wonderful food!

After that you will head to Montalcino. Home of the world-famous Brunello wine, Montalcino is an intriguing medieval hilltop town. Brunello wine is said to be "the king of reds and the red of kings". Brunello was developed by Ferruccio Biondi Santi a little more than a century ago, and almost immediately drew the attention of connoisseurs for its excellence. Brunello is produced exclusively within the Montalcino territory, and only from Sangiovese Grosso grapes, a Sangiovese clone perfectly suited to local conditions. Before release, Brunello must be aged for four years, at least two of which must be in wooden casks.

At the end of the tour, sit back, relax and enjoy your 2 hour drive back to your accommodation in Florence. The duration of your tour is about 10 hours and you can expect to be back at your hotel around 6pm, depending on local traffic.
