• Florence - Guests will be picked up from their accommodation in Florence at 8:45 am. The driver typically arrives at the address by 8:30 am. The journey to the first winery will take about one hour.

• Scarperia e San Piero - Winemaking at this estate dates back to 1465 when Lorenzo de’ Medici planted the original vines on the historic Podere Fortuna vineyards. Nestled among the picturesque Tuscan hills, which reveal a series of unique landscapes, the vineyards produce refined wines while honoring the Mugello valley. The region’s climate is perfect for Pinot Noir, with the temperature differences between day and night aiding in optimal ripening. Currently transitioning to organic production, the estate mainly grows Pinot Noir, with a small area dedicated to Chardonnay. The vineyard adheres to biodynamic principles, treating the entire winemaking process as a cohesive entity. They protect the land by avoiding pesticides, instead using natural fertilizers like recycled grape skins to enrich the soil. This method not only improves the quality of the fruit but also enhances the wine itself.

• Vicchio - The history of this winery is intertwined with the Bacci family, who relocated to “Monte” in 1985. Here, Sergio, Giorgia, Enrico, and Elena established their home and decided to plant a small vineyard for personal use. Monteprimo overlooks the vines, becoming a beloved backdrop for admiration. In 2016, Enrico and Elena, with the assistance of their children Silvia and Duccio, expanded their vision by planting two hectares of Pinot Noir, founding the Bacco del Monte company. Situated in Vicchio, the birthplace of Giotto and Beato Angelico, the estate is rich in artistic heritage and benefits from the valley’s unique topography and microclimate, marked by significant temperature variations between day and night. This environment has made Pinot Noir cultivation increasingly significant. The vineyard features a planting density of 5000 vines per hectare, utilizing the Guyot training system.
