Tasting wines drawn directly from the barrel is normally a privilege reserved for winemakers, but we have decided to extend the possibility to those guests who are most passionate about wine. As barrel-drawn wine is a product in development, guests will be guided through the tasting by our experienced technical personnel.
The tour of the cantina will be followed by a tasting of three of our finest wines, which will be uncorked exclusively for our guests, and will be accompanied by a tasting of Tenuta Valdipiatta’s Extra-Virgin Olive Oil.

UNDER THE TUSCAN SUN
(Duration of Tour & Wine Tasting: 2 hours + lunch) €85,00 p.p.
For those who wish to enrich the experience of our cellar tour with a relaxing break in the heart of the Tuscan countryside, Tenuta Valdipiatta offers an exclusive wine tour that concludes withrefreshments served alfresco in the winery’s garden.
After the tour of our vinification facilities, and the historical barrel cellar carved out of the tufa, we’ll take our guests to one of the vineyards near the cantina for a more in-depth discussion of the agronomic aspects of wine production, followed by a tasting of four of Tenuta Valdipiatta’s finest vintages.
At the end of the tour, our guests will have the chance to relax and enjoy an open-air picnic that will be set up exclusively for them near one of our vineyards. The picnic will consist of local specialities and Tenuta Valdipiatta wines.
