A wonderful Montepulciano highlight - A wonderful, intimate experience. Two couples, enchanted by our extremely knowledgeable, humurous and charming sommelier Tassos. Some of us did a lot of notes, some simply leaned back, drank and listened to the wonderful stories - and we all learned a loot about Tuscan wine. It was definitely an experience worth not only the money, but also the eternally short time spent travelling. We highly recommend it to anybody that likes authenticity, stories, and amazing wine explorations that stimulate the mind as well as the senses.

Incredible - My friend and I booked this tasting last minute unsure what to expect and we were completely impressed. Tasos was our Sommelier for the day and he brought so much passion and knowledge to our tasting. We spent a good 2 hours in the beautifully cool cellar learning about 9 varieties of wine from the grapes to the soil to the weather and so much more that impacts a wine. We both loved learning so much and found Tasos extremely easy to follow. Afterwards we decided to make a booking on the terrace to enjoy a meal and Tasos made sure we had the perfect table. He helped us chose our meal and the right wine to accompany with it. We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect experience and we will make a point of visiting again. Thank you so much to everyone involved for this experience. Truely 10/10

An absolute must to explore Tuscan wine! - This was truly a 10/10 experience! Whether you know wine or you don't, the sommelier shared his knowledge of wine in a professional and fun way! You can feel his passion for it as well, which made this such a memorable experience! Tassos and Francesco have created a diamond of a wine tasting experience, and that's no exaggeration!

Excellent tasting with great Sommelier - Excellent tasting. We came hoping to learn more about Tuscan wine and Tasos certainly delivered. We left with a good understanding of the history and geography of Tuscany. Obviously also tasted some great wines in the process.

Best Wine Experience in Montepulciano - An extremely informative and engaging experience, explaining so much about the wines of Montepulciano and Tuscany. We came away with great knowledge and better understanding of the local businesses including the effect of climate change on this ancient wine region. Our sommelier concentrated on the taste of the wines (9 in all) and we were able to make good notes. This was far more engaging than wandering around vines and barrels. Thank you and highly recommended!

A lovely wine tasting experience - This was a genuinely great wine-tasting experience. These guys clearly know their wine and their passion is visible. The wines were all great—the education behind the varietals, labeling, bottling, and wine-making standards was really insightful. Delicious snacks were served with the tasting. We enjoyed it so much that we bought a case to send home and stayed to have dinner. The food at the restaurant was also exceptional!

Looking forward to our first shipment to what looks like a great Italian Wine Club - While eating lunch, Francesco (one of the owners and an avid music aficionado as well as somm), told us about the daily wine tastings at 4:00 PM and his wine club. Francesco pairs each wine with a rock, jazz or blues composition to communicate the style of the wine. We signed up for the next day’s tasting which was managed by Tassos and lasted 3 hours(!). Tassos knows his wine and was so generous with his time! If memory serves, we tasted 11 separate wines from the region (maybe 13???). We then settled in for a wonderful dinner overlooking Val d’Orcia and a beautiful sunset. Oh yeah - we signed up for the wine club and are looking forward to our first shipment. Francesco and Tassos are passionate and great fun.
