Wine & Pecorino Cheese Lover
An authentic experience in the heart of Tuscany, between flavors and iconic landscapes.
The tour begins at a dairy farm nestled among the hills of the Val d’Orcia, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, or the Valdichiana Senese, where the renowned Pecorino di Pienza is made. You will discover the cheese-making techniques up close, meet the artisans, and learn how to distinguish the different ageing stages, from fresh to mature, tasting the cheese also paired with honey and jams. It all begins with the milk of sheep grazing freely among the wild herbs of the Tuscan countryside, which give the cheese its unique aroma.
The experience then continues towards Montepulciano, through vineyards of Prugnolo Gentile, with a visit to a Vino Nobile winery. The producer will guide you through their philosophy and production methods, which you will then recognise in the bold flavour of Rosso di Montepulciano DOC and Vino Nobile di Montepulciano DOCG, to be tasted at the end of the visit.
A short yet intense journey, perfect even for those with limited time, to savour the most genuine essence of Tuscan flavours.
