Stop At: Terme di Chianciano, Via Delle Rose, 12, 53042, Siena Italy

In Chianciano you will meet your expert local guide, touring to taste the EVO Oil and learn about the "streap" technique!

The acronym EVO indicates Extra Virgin Olive Oil, the most important characteristics of EVO is that the olive oil is obtained from olives that have never touched the ground, have not undergone any processing and are worked exclusively with mechanical methods without chemicals.

The olives are pressed in the mill and it is a controlled cold temperature for the extraction of the Extravergin Olive Oil.

In 15 minutes we will be in Montepulciano, shopping in the Medioeval scented village and discovering its Noble Wines!

Montepulciano is a medieval and Renaissance hill town that is located not too far from Siena.

It is a major producer of food and drink. Renowned for its pork, cheese, "pici" pasta, lentils, and honey, it is known world-wide for its wine. Connoisseurs consider its Vino Nobile, which should not be confused with varietal wine merely made from the Montepulciano grape, among Italy's best.

A visit of Montepulciano can’t be complete without the possibility to taste some local wine.

Breath the essence of a world heritage site and steal the memory of a preserved landscape with its authentic artisans. In 10 minutes we will reach Giuseppe's farm. His dairy is a nostalgic reminiscence of an ancient job...sheep cheese production! Passionate your tastebuds in this travel around flavours! Pienza: The small town of Pienza was just a village in the beginning, but then it was rebuilt in the XV century as a Renaissance town. Walking through the streets, several important sites can be spotted, and each of them brings along a portion of the town’s history. By the way today Pienza is not known just for its history, but also for the wine production in the area and for the food culture. In particular, Pienza is famous for its pecorino cheese, that is matured in several different ways in order to enhance its flavor.

At the end of the tour, sit back, relax and enjoy your drive back to your accommodation in Rome.
