Join our popular 2 hour introductory class to the Tuscan Classics. During this class you will taste the most typical wines Tuscany has to offer. This class has been designed for anyone interested in getting to know / knowing more about Tuscan wines.
The wines that you will taste:
- Vernaccia di San Gimignano
- Chianti Classico
- Vino Nobile di Montepulciano
- Brunello di Montalcino
- Super Tuscan (surprise!)
- Vin Santo
We’ll taste the wines together, learn about the grapes that go into them and why, how they were aged and how long you could keep these wines.
You will be introduced to the Italian wine designation system and learn how that helps you to read the label and to know what wine you have in front of you at the wine shop.
Remember that all of our classes are in English, so no need to bring the Italian phrasebook!
All the wines you taste are for sale in our e-shop (you can use the computer at the school to order and ship back home) or in our wine shop in Siena (we don’t have the possibility of selling wines out of our Florence school).
