About this trip

For four nights, make yourself at home in a beautiful country farmhouse surrounded by vineyards and olive groves in the Sienese hills. Nothing rushed. Nothing overly orchestrated. Just wonderful people, beautiful places, very good food and, naturally, quite a bit of wine.

The little wineries. The long lunches. The people who remember your name. Flour on the table. Brunello in the glass. A beautiful road with nowhere urgent to be. So come hungry, bring comfortable shoes, and leave a little room in your suitcase. We’ll take care of the rest.

Inclusions

Four nights in Tuscan countryside farmhouse
A charming country farmhouse surrounded by vineyards, olive groves and those ridiculous Val d’Orcia views that make you briefly consider abandoning your entire life and buying a farmhouse in Italy.

Private transportation throughout
We’ll have our own driver-guide, so you can enjoy the scenery, the wine and the occasional extra glass without giving the winding Tuscan roads a second thought.

A family-run Brunello winery
One of the smaller producers I love — intimate, personal and a wonderful way to understand what makes Brunello di Montalcino so special-- yes, the grapes but also the people!

Time in Montalcino
A little wandering, a little shopping, and a glass of bubbles together in the piazza. No rushing. That rather defeats the purpose of being in Tuscany.

A wine-paired lunch at a Brunello estate
Beautiful wines, beautiful food and nowhere else we need to be.

A hands-on Tuscan cooking experience
A winery visit followed by fresh pasta making, traditional Tuscan recipes, plenty of storytelling from our chefs and a four-course meal paired with three Brunello wines.

A truffle hunt in the Tuscan countryside
Part walk, part treasure hunt, part excuse to spend a glorious morning outdoors.

A four-course truffle lunch
Because, well...Tuscany. (And yes, you're welcome.)

Not included: airfare or airport pick-up.
