This wine tour was excellent. By far the highlight of our trip to Italy. Each winery was unique and beautiful. We had a delicious lunch at the second winery which was so stunning and peaceful we want to move there. Our tour guide was superb and we learned all about the different wine making processes.

During our Holidays in Florence on January, 2023 we went on another Tuscan wine tour with Italy and Wine. This time to sample Chianti Classico. Our guide was Matteo, who is a sommelier. He taught us about the process of making Chianti Classico, the type of grapes used for a wine to receive the Chianti Classico denomination by the Italian Government, and served as our translator in the three Chianti Classico wineries visited. We got a great insight on Tuscan wine and food culture, and even had a typical Tuscan lunch at the second winery properly pared with their own Chianti Classico wines. Italy and Wine has been our number 1 company to experience the wine and food culture of Tuscany and highly recommend it when staying in Florence. We will continue taking tours with them everyone we visit Florence, Italy. Grazie mille a tutti voi.Everything about this day was perfect!

Everything about this day was perfect! We were in Italy for 10 days and this was everybody’s favorite day of the entire trip by far. Matteo is extremely kind, fun, and knowledgeable about the Chianti Classico region. He is well connected with many different wine makers in the region and it is clear he has a passion for what he does! Matteo brought us to three vineyards in total and each one was incredible. He made the entire experience fun. We could not recommend this experience enough!!!I was incredibly disappointed with this experience. I did this tour in my previous travels in 2019 and it was so great I wanted to do it again with my husband when I came back. Big mistake...It was completely different this time, in a bad way, and double the cost. It became a transaction vs and e...
I was incredibly disappointed with this experience. I did this tour in my previous travels in 2019 and it was so great I wanted to do it again with my husband when I came back. Big mistake...It was completely different this time, in a bad way, and double the cost. It became a transaction vs and experience. My biggest complaint was the guide. In reality she was a driver, not a guide. There was ZERO interaction with the guests. She told us absolutely nothing about the region or the wineries we were visiting for the day, she didnt even ask for each person's name. In fact I don't even know her name for that reason. She was in and out continuously at each winery taking personal phone calls as well as talking on the phone while driving us. Had her air pods in the entire time since she was not conversating with us. We had to turn around the vehicle a few times as she didn't seem to know where she was going. I could go on but I won't. My other major complaint was the lunch. It was pretty awful. It was a bowl of the simplest, very dry, over salted pasta. The worst I've had in Italy. And then anti-pasta was framed as the main course. It was a charcuterie of meats and cheeses. If you have spent any time in Italy you know that is not a main course. Again I have done this tour before and the last time we ate in a wine makers home, a 5 course home cooked meal that you can tell he put a lot of love into. It was absolutely incredible. We'll, don't get your hopes up newcomers. Lastly the wine tastings we're fairly minimal, small pours and getting try less varieties. As a group we ordered and drank several bottles at the wineries because we wanted more wine. All that said I still managed to have a good day because of two factors. The first being, two of the wineries we visited made some outstanding wine and the hosts were welcoming and knowledgeable to tell us about their wine and the region in general. They walked us through the tasting and answered all our questions. The second highlight was the other guests on the tour. We all became friends entertained each other since we had no attention from the guide and had a great time drinking wine and getting to know each other.Filippo took us around to stunning wineries of the Chianti region.

Filippo took us around to stunning wineries of the Chianti region. Everything was spectacular, from the flavor of their wines, the views, the food, and we loved that they were all wineries that believe in natural approaches (they don't use pesticides or chemical preservatives). Filippo himself was an excellent and friendly guide that knew loads of information about the history, the wines in the region (and other regions), and he made us feel quite relaxed and was easy to talk to. I would highly recommend the tour to anyone visiting the area!This tour is an absolute MUST. We loved every minute of it.

This tour is an absolute MUST. We loved every minute of it. Matteo was an amazing and knowledgeable guide - a trained sommelier and passionate about the wines and tasting - also such a friendly and fun guy. It is a smaller group (maximum of 8, we had 4) which makes it such a personable experience. The wineries we went to were beautiful, family owned, and delicious - none of them pressured you to buy wine and they were so sweet. The time at each winery also felt just right with time to enjoy each one but still visit 3. They will also ship any wine or olive oil you buy directly from the winery which was so convenient. Definitely recommend!
