Italy Wine Tours:
Experience the beauty and sensuality of the Italian countryside

Visit the vineyards of Italy once, and you'll fall in love for a lifetime.  Tuscany is one of the most beautiful and culturally rich wine regions in the world, and we'll include its most famous sites, as well as its secret treasures, on your tour.  Begin in Florence, and travel through the lovely backroads of Chianti Classico.  Why not visit the beautiful city of Siena, before enjoying tastings at the finest estates of Brunello and Vino Nobile de Montepulciano.
Watch peccorino cheese being made at the farm, and enjoy free time to explore the medieval villages of Pienza, San Gimignano or Cortona along the way.  Then on to coastal Maremma, home to the famous "Super Tuscans", where you'll enjoy VIP tastings at the very best vineyards like Ornellaia, Tua Rita or Petra.  

Gorgeous, luxurious villa-hotels will be specially chosen for your tour: for example, the fairytale-like Locanda dell' Amorosa, and in the Maremma, the elegant and lovely Villa Il Tessoro. Sample the finest local cuisine at top restaurants, including meals at the wineries you'll be visiting.

Tours in Piedmont (home to one of the world's greatest wines, Barolo), Veneto or Italy's other fabulous wine regions are also available.
