Wine Tour description
Brunello Wine Tour
The formula for this wine tasting tour south of siena.
A “cluster” of Brunello wine estimators eager to find out where the Brunello wine was born and eager to discover all its secrets, from the vines to the casks, to the rules to produce it and much more.
Brunello is a red wine, full-bodied, aged, structured and complex, can be elegant or wild, it depends on the philosophy of the wineries and their location.
The scenary is quite different from Chianti region, from where the Chianti is hilly and green, here is mainly brown with cypress trees that appear from time to time.
The only selected area where is possible to make the Brunello wine is set around the pretty town of Montalcino and only 250 wine producers are allowed to make the Brunello and the Rosso di Montalcino wine.
All that makes the Brunello even more special.

Our Client's Words
You can read here what some of our clients had to say about our tours. Imagine what we could do for you!
My wife and I took Angie’s Castle & Wine tour in late May. We had a fun, small group with Barbara as our guide. Barbara was very genuine and truly expressed an interest in wanting all of us to enjoy our day, as well as our time in Tuscany Would I recommend the tour? Yes, without a doubt. If you are a red wine drinker, these are smaller producers that you are most likely not able to purchase in the U.S. They make excellent wines, so treat yourself and send some home Our wines arrived in four weeks. Grazie Mille Angie and Barbara for a terrific day!

An amazing day touring the Tuscany wine region! I would especially like to thank Francesca for making my 50th birthday a memory I will treasure forever! Her knowledge of wines, the countryside, olive oil, etc. was extraordinary! The wineries and the owners (Stephania and Marco) were excellent hosts and provided us with samples of the most amazing wines and olive oils. I would highly recommend your company to anyone visiting the Tuscany region! Again, thanks!!!

I went on a wine tasting tour with Angie a few years ago and because of the great experience I booked again for May 2013. Angie’s tour was already fully booked so we were in Olivia’s group, another awesome day! The whole region is beautiful and there are plenty of tour operators but for me Angie’s personal service and small groups make her the go-to company for your Tuscan wine tasting tour. A bonus with the smaller groups is that Angie takes you to small and medium sized wineries, not the giant mass production places, so you really get face to face time with the owner/winemakers.
