And that’s your first stop, dedicated to discovering the secrets of olive oil production in Tuscany. Olive oil Tuscany is famed throughout the world and you’ll head to a mill on an ancient estate where you’ll have your first tasting of the day.
This trail is not just about olive oil, you’ll also get acquainted with the history of wine and how Tuscans keep the long-lasting traditions of winemaking alive. You will be accompanied by a sommelier who can tell you all about the world of Chianti Wines.
