Brunello Wine Tour from Siena with Montalcino Visit

Meet your guide at Stazione di Siena

Your adventure begins at the Siena train station, where you'll meet your expert guide and board a comfortable minivan. As you leave the city walls behind, watch the landscape shift into the iconic cypress-lined roads and rolling golden hills of the Val d'Orcia region.

Visit a prestigious wine estate

Arrive at a historic winery to see where the famous Sangiovese grapes grow under the Tuscan sun. You will head underground into the cool cellar to see the massive oak barrels where the wine rests for years before tasting several bold, structured vintages with your guide.

Sample local olive oil

Take a break from the wine to appreciate Tuscany's other liquid gold during a guided olive oil tasting. You'll drizzle extra virgin oil over crusty bread and learn why the soil in this specific region produces such a distinctive, peppery finish that local families have loved for centuries.

Taste vintages at a second winery

Continue your education at a different estate to compare winemaking styles and family traditions. By tasting a second flight of Brunello, you will notice how different elevations and soil types create unique flavors, helping you identify your own personal preferences in every glass.

Explore the village of Montalcino

Head into the heart of Montalcino for some independent exploration of this medieval hilltop sanctuary. You can climb the stairs of the 14th-century fortress for a bird’s-eye view of the vineyards, shop for local leather goods, or enjoy an espresso in the quiet central piazza.
