This is the perfect early afternoon activity between museum visits and city walks. Spend an hour in company of our wine prof and learn the basic techniques of tasting and the vocabulary you need to describe your wine.
Tasting of 3 wines to illustrate the different wine making techniques:
- A sparkling wine
- Traditional Tuscan red wine
- Dessert wine
We will talk you through the processes that go behind making the different kinds of wines.We’ll taste together and talk about each individual wine to broaden your wine vocabulary and get good tasting techniques.
We'll also talk briefly about Tuscany's main wine regions so you may have some Tuscan wine fundamentals to build further on during your stay in Florence or Tuscany.
Remember that all of our classes are in English, so no need to bring the Italian phrasebook!
The wines you taste are for sale on 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).
