Highlights
  • Chianciano Terme - Embark on a journey through Chianciano to savor the EVO Oil and discover the “streap” method! EVO stands for Extra Virgin Olive Oil, which is produced from olives that have never made contact with the ground, are unprocessed, and are mechanically pressed without the use of chemicals at a temperature that is meticulously controlled. The olives are crushed at the mill, and that’s the complete process for extracting Extra Virgin Olive Oil.
    EVO Oil Sampling at an Authentic Olive Farm.

  • Montepulciano - Enjoy some leisure time for shopping and an independent exploration of the aromatic Medieval village! Montepulciano is a historic town perched on a hill in Southern Tuscany. It’s a hub for gastronomy, famous for its pork, cheese, “pici” pasta, lentils, and honey, and is internationally acclaimed for its wine. The Vino Nobile of Montepulciano, which is distinct from wines simply made from the Montepulciano grape, is considered one of Italy’s finest.

  • Montepulciano - A visit to a winery, complete with a Wine Tasting tour in the pastoral surroundings.

  • Historic Centre of the City of Pienza - Pienza is a quaint town that underwent a transformation into a Renaissance gem in the 15th century. A self-directed stroll through its streets reveals numerous significant landmarks, each contributing to the town’s rich history. Pienza is also celebrated for its wine, culinary delights, and cultural heritage. Notably, Pienza is renowned for its pecorino cheese, which is aged in various ways to intensify its taste.

  • Pienza - Cheese Tasting in Pienza: Say “cheese” and flash a grin for the camera! In Southern Tuscany, you’ll beam alongside Giuseppe and his flock of sheep! Giuseppe’s homestead and creamery hark back to the timeless craft of sheep cheese making! Indulge your palate on this flavorful journey!
