Chianti, Tuscany, Italy
Journey beyond Florence into the ancient olive groves of Tuscany where generations of farming families have perfected the art of creating Italy’s most precious culinary treasure. This immersive adventure unveils the secrets of exceptional extra virgin olive oil—a cornerstone of Mediterranean cuisine and culture.
Your private driver navigates scenic country roads to a family-owned farmhouse nestled among silver-leaved olive trees. Here, walk among centuries-old groves as you learn to identify heritage varieties and discover how terroir, harvesting techniques, and pressing methods create oils with distinctive personalities.
Learn about the careful transformation from fruit to liquid gold. Then, engage your senses in a guided blind tasting experience where you’ll learn to recognize the peppery finish of quality oil, detect subtle flavor notes from grassy to almond, and distinguish authentic EVOO from imposters.
The experience culminates with a farm-to-table feast featuring dishes that showcase the estate’s oils paired with their complementary wines. Each bite tells a story of Tuscan culinary heritage, connecting you deeply to this land where olive cultivation has defined the landscape and culture for over two thousand years.
