Italy And Wine specializes in wine tours. For
the curious type wanting to know a bit of viticulture and the wine making
process,
or the novice wanting to learn how to taste and appreciate quality wines,
I will provide a tour which will be entertaining, informative and fun.
Italy And Wine was formed in 2004 as a result
of a long term love of Italy, his wines, food and way of life. It all
started in the 1990s when I was studying as a Sommelier. In 2005 I was
the first florentine company that started offering shared
tuscan wine tours .
I have designed a variety of itineraries in the three
major wine areas of Italy such as Tuscany, Piedmont and Veneto. All these
itineraries can now be customized to suit individual
and group requirements and budgets.

Here below I suggest some itineraries:
-
The red Italian wine most known in the world. It's the combination
of the sangiovese vine with traditional canaiolo, malvasia and trebbiano
vines. His color is ruby red, almost garnet.
-
This tour offers a full immersion in the wine's wold. You'll begin
in the vineyards and receive an explanation of the terroir- the combination
of local climate, soils and grape varietals.
-
One of the most precious wines, ruby red, produced in the territory
of Montalcino from brunello and sangiovese vines. Before the bottling
it is aged at least 4 years in English or French oak casks.
-
Montepulciano is like a mini Florence, and for that reason alone it's
worth a visit. Vino Nobile is an aged red wine of high quality. At
the typical vines of Chianti are added in limited quantity the grechetto,
bianco and mammola vines.
-
San Gimignano is the poster child for Tuscany and the epitome of a
medieval Italian hilltop town. It is famouse for the Vernaccia
di San Gimignano which is a white wine made from grapes grown
around Tuscany.
-
The lush green hills that surround Verona have been the home of indigenous
vines for over 2,000 years. We'll visit celebrated vineyards each
producing there own versions of the Amarone "the big dry one".
-
The vineyards of the Barolo DOCG zones are not extensive, but they
are the most carefully charted stands of vines anywhere in Italy.
