Private Tour: Weinverkostung in Montalcino

Dies war unsere erste Reise nach Italien. Wir sind so glücklich, Francesco gefunden zu haben! Er war unser privater Reiseleiter für 3 Tage. Jeden Tag hatte er eine einzigartige Reiseroute an einem anderen geografischen Ort. Sein Wissen über Wein, Weingüter und Speisenpaarungen ist außergewöhnlich - ich sollte auch erwähnen, dass ich ein Sommelier der Stufe 1 (USA) bin. Wenn ich also Francescos Fähigkeiten kommentiere, weiß ich, wovon ich spreche. Wenn wir nach Italien zurückkehren, werden wir ihn auf jeden Fall wieder buchen.

This was our first trip to Italy and our time spent with Francesco touring wineries was unforgettable! He was so much more than our driver. He shared his knowledge of the area and countryside as we drove from one location to another. He often gave additional information about the each business we visited to give us a better understanding of what they do. He really shined when it came to wine. Francesco is incredibly knowledgeable about wines and helped teach us how to better appreciate what we were tasting. He taught us about the characteristics of each wine and how to properly pair them with food. Each of the wineries we visited were unique and completely different, we enjoyed the diversity and getting to meet the those involved in the making of the wines. We would sign up for this again, should we find ourselves in the area.

Francesco met us on the morning of our wine tour. We loaded up into the van and the adventure began. He gave us a great background on Italian wines and prepared our minds and palates for our first stop. The tour was fascinating and gave me a deeper understanding of wine, wine pairing and wine making. Francesco is a true wine professional providing guidance and answers to many questions. The vineyards we visited presented unique wine tasting experiences. My wife and I have gone on several wine tours in California and we never experienced anything as this tour. The Montalcino Wine Tasting Experience is truly exceptional.
