No Tuscan wine lover can miss this opportunity to learn more about one of Tuscany's great reds. Vino Nobile di Montepulciano is often described as combining the scent of Chianti Classico and the richness of Brunello di Montalcino. Doesn't that sound worth tasting in person?

Andrea was a wealth of knowledge! Such an amazing experience! We learnt so much, not only about Italian wine but wine in general. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a learning experience with exposure to the some of the best wines of the area.

Viator’s error was our WIN! We were emailed a cancellation and started to look for other wine tour- lucky for us we found Andrea and this spectacular tour of the region, 2 vineyards, a beautiful lunch and a walking tour of Montepulciano. We were also fortunate to be the only ones on our tour, but I have no doubt Andrea would have been equally attentive to more guests. He was incredibly knowledgeable, personable and made the day a delight! I highly recommend asking for him if you are interested in this region, their grapes and their beautiful wines. You will not be sorry!

What a fabulous day! We spent the entire day yesterday touring wineries around Montepulciano...Le Berne, Romeo, and Godiolo. We got a far more detailed look at winemaking than any other tour or tasting we have ever been on. We met the families, tasted fabulous wines and learned about the local winemaking traditions/philosophies. Our guide was as interesting as he was gracious and very very funny. We shipped a few hidden gems home to our friends and took some home to drink before we leave. If you've never been to Montepulciano, it is one of the most beautiful small towns I have ever seen. It is where "Under the Tuscan Sun" was filmed. It is a two-hour drive outside Florence, but if you have the time, it is worth every minute of the drive. At the pick-up point, we met some people who had done the truffle hunting tour. They were so excited about their experiences, we booked a second tour with Italy and Wine! We can not wait. This is a great tour company and a fabulous way to spend a day in Florence!!

Matteo was an excellent and insightful tour guide through the wines of Montepulciano. Add in a historic walk through the center of town and it was a tour I highly recommend.

Italy and Wine is absolutely the best place to go for an in depth tour of Tuscan wines. Our tour of Vino Nobile di Montepulciano featured tastings at three wineries with an amazing lunch prepared and paired with outstanding wines. Fabian, a trained sommelier, was highly knowledgeable, personable and explained each tasting and what to look for in exquisite detail. The day was a feast for the senses topped off with a 10 minute walk around the ancient hill town of Montepulciano featuring breathtakingly beautiful vistas of the Tuscan countryside. The price is well worth the experience. Highly recommended for all levels of wine enthusiasts.
