Experience an Unprecedented Tuscany Tour
Col Solare Winery Unveils Exclusive Tuscan Journey
Col Solare Winery, a Washington-based producer of Cabernet Sauvignon-based wines, is offering an exclusive 8-day, 7-night journey through Tuscany. This unique experience, taking place from May 2 to 9, 2019, is a collaboration with a leading food and wine travel website.
The journey begins in Florence, the capital of Italy's Tuscany region. Guests will immerse themselves in the city's rich history, taking part in hands-on cooking workshops, walking tours, and sightseeing. A highlight of the Florence leg of the trip will be a hands-on pizza-making class.
The tour continues with visits to charming towns such as Siena and Cortona, offering guests the opportunity to explore these picturesque locations and indulge in traditional Tuscan cuisine. The journey also includes a trip to the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Pienza, a hillside village renowned for its cheese production.
Guests will have the chance to learn from experts in their fields. Renzo Cotarella, chief enologist at Antinori, will share his knowledge during a tour of the Antinori private estate. Col Solare Winemaker Darel Allwine will also join the tour, providing insights into the winemaking process.
In addition to wine tastings, guests will learn about the art of Italian cooking from Chef Titi. An exciting aspect of the trip will be a cheese tasting session with expert Andrea Magi, where guests can cut, taste, and smell different cheeses while sipping on prosecco.
The tour will also take guests to Montalcino, where they can discover award-winning wines. Along the way, they will hike on the ancient footpaths of the Etruscans, adding a touch of history to their Tuscan adventure.
