Highlight of our Tuscan trip - The wine tasting with Angelo and Simone was a highlight of our trip! They were both so kind and fun, in addition to knowledgeable and skilled. We drank the most delicious wines and learned so much about the different tastes throughout the Tuscany region. The bread, oil, and cheese pairings were delicious. There were 7 of us total and everyone said that wine tasting was the best day we had. Simone was great to work with- responsive, kind, and focused on the customer’s experience. I highly recommend this to everyone!!

Delightful! - We are a group of Americans who rented a villa near Lucca. Simone came to our villa one evening and presented a wine tasting “The wines of the province of Lucca”. He came early to set everything up, bringing glassware for each of our 5 generous tastings. He began with some information about olive oil and offers cheese, bread and olive oil as snacks to enjoy during the tasting. Simone is most knowledgeable about these local wines and enjoys sharing in his excellent English. We began with a sparkling, moved to a white wine, next a rose, followed by 2 reds. All quite good. At the conclusion of our tasting Simone offered bottles for sale which we found to be at a very reasonable cost. We loved the ease of wine tasting at “home” without having to drive a distance to a winery. Highly recommend. Excellent communication, easy going yet professional presentation. Great value. Thank you!

Excellent private wine tasting - We had a brilliant private wine tasting with Simone at our Villa, just outside Lucca. Simone brought 5 wines which were all excellent and ones none of us had tried before and we ended up buying a few of each. Simone was extremely knowledgeable and the tasting was really interesting and great fun. I would really recommend a tasting with Simone if you want to try some different local wines.
