Depart Rome early in the morning and travel through the rolling hills of Tuscany, enjoying panoramic countryside views as you head towards the Val d'Orcia region.

Arrive in Montepulciano and wander its atmospheric streets and elegant piazzas, discovering medieval and Renaissance architecture and locations made famous in contemporary cinema. Take time to absorb the town's character, from narrow alleys to sweeping viewpoints over vine-covered slopes.

Later, step into an ancient cellar dating back to the 12th century to learn about traditional winemaking in the area. Experience a focused tasting that introduces regional varieties and production methods, accompanied by insights from wine professionals and a relaxed, convivial atmosphere. Savour a carefully prepared Tuscan lunch that showcases local ingredients and pairs naturally with the wines presented, creating a memorable meal rooted in regional flavours.

The day continues to Montalcino, a perfectly preserved medieval hilltop town dominated by its fortress. Explore the historic core and an interactive museum dedicated to Brunello, gaining perspective on the history and culture behind one of Italy's most celebrated wines before the return journey to Rome.
