This cooking class was very fun and Sandra was a great host! She showed us around her farm and explained everything thoroughly. The farm itself was beautiful and we got to enjoy what we cooked while overlooking a stunning view of Val d'Orcia. Definitely recommend this!

The wine tour was one of the best we have had in a trip full of great experiences. Our Sommelier, Nicola was wonderful, extremely knowledgeable and really took his time giving us a deeper understanding and appreciation of the wines. We could not have enjoyed it more. The wine cellar was spectacular some of which dates to antiquity. The wines we fabulous. I would highly recommend this tour.

Esperienza molto bella, vino buono e ottima degustazione con la nostra guida che ci ha guidato passo passo alla conoscenza di un vino che spesso non viene molto considerato rispetto al suo “vicino” di Montalcino” al quale però non ha nulla da invidiare.
