About this experience
I am a sommelier with an international certificate, as well as education in tourism and culture. So I have a lot to tell you and to treat you with! First, I will take you to the city market and offer you local delicacies. And then the most interesting part - I will immerse you in the philosophy of wine, teach you how to properly taste and choose it, reveal the secret of how to drink without getting drunk.
What to expect
We will stroll through the streets of Florence and visit the local market:
- We will taste the famous balsamic vinegar from Modena
- We will talk to the cheese producer and try various types of pecorino
- We will try several truffle-based products - the king of autumn in Tuscany
- We will end with crunchy cantucci dipped in sweet Vin Santo wine
- I will also teach you how to taste olive oil and determine its quality
Then we will head to the wine bar and delve into the philosophy of wine. With me you will:
- Taste a wine that "cured" during the Black Plague
- Learn the secrets of how to drink without getting drunk and how to avoid a hangover the next day
- Learn how to properly taste wine and impress at any party, even among snobby sommeliers
- Find the type of Italian wine that suits your taste
- Learn all the pros and cons of working in the wine industry as a foreigner in Italy
Organizational details
- The cost of the tour includes services of a guide-sommelier, mini tasting of local products, wine masterclass and tasting of 3 wines
- For a group of 4 people, I can offer a discount - the cost will be €50/person.
