Private Montalcino and Pienza Tour from Florence Private Montalcino and Pienza Tour from Florence

Driving around rolling hills, sunflowers and roads lined with cypress trees, we will focus on: two delicacies of the area, red wine and Pecorino cheese. We will headfirst to Pienza, a real jewel nestled in the heart of the Val D'Orcia valley. It is considered to be the touchstone of the Renaissance urbanism plan. We will start the day with a cheese tasting in a traditional local ‘Bottega’ in town, where you will be able to taste various kinds of Pecorino cheese, a signature product of the area. Then, it is the turn of Montalcino, a medieval village that offers many attractions, from monuments to its local craft shops. This is the land of “Brunello”, top quality wine that has made this village famous all over the world. A local winery will host us where a knowledgeable guide will take you around the property with a private visit in the cellar. Afterwards, you will have lunch in an exclusive context pairing typical Tuscan food with their exquisite Brunello wines.
