Itinerary

1. 1

   Volterra

   45min

   Volterra is a charming town situated in the province of Pisa, not far from Florence, Siena and the coast as well. It is well known for its Etruscan origins and for the many remains belonging to this era. Ideal place for a small break and sightseeing ...

2. 2

   Bolgheri

   2h

   Bolgheri is a relatively young yet prestigious Italian appellation located in the Maremma on the Tuscan coast just to the south of Livorno, and named after a town in the north of the region. It is known mainly for deeply colored, supple yet ageworthy red wines, usually based on the Bordeaux grape varieties. The winemaking zone features sloping coastal vineyards close to the Tyrrhenian Sea. As recently as the 1970s, the area had little reputation for wine production, regarded elsewhere in Tuscany as something of a swampy zone producing fairly nondescript white wines and rosés, and better suited to other farming, in contrast to the prime Tuscan vineyards further up in the hills. Then, in 1978, in an infamous blind tasting arranged by Decanter Magazine, the 1972 vintage of a largely unknown wine called Sassicaia, made at Tenuta San Guido estate of the Marchese Mario Incisa della Rocchetta, beat a number of top Bordeaux wines. Wine had been made at Tenuta San Guido in a rather rustic fashion for personal consumption for some years previously, and only commercialized from the 1968 vintage, but this early example of a more polished version made by legendary winemaking consultant Giacomo Tachis led to an awakening of interest in the region. Here we will have lunch at Tenuta San Guido Osteria - typical local cusine

3. 3

   Cantina Castello di Bolgheri

   1h

   After lunch we will go to visit Argentiera Wine Estate - One of the most representative estates of Bolgheri is born from a harmonious union between the strength and elegance of nature and the patience of man, whom - out of respect for this dichotomy - produces wines of great style. A visit immersed in the harmony of nature and a guided tasting by our experts in our Wine Library allows you to fully discover Tenuta Argentiera.
