Wine Tasting in Tuscany

Wine Tasting in Tuscany

By Jim Simons

This area is very well known for its gorgeous landscapes, artistic culture and has a times been the home to many famous artists such as Leonardo Divinci and Michelangelo, but what else is there about this famous land of beauty?

I would have to say its wines! The wines developed within Tuscany are known for their world-class smoothness, aroma and best of all in these modern days, you can visit the wineries and try many of these wonderful wines even before you buy!

Actually for me it's more than just wine tasting, its history, culture, the people and this great landscape all thrown into one delectable palate.

Below in this article I would like to recommend some wineries to visit and even the products that they produce.

FATTORIA CASA SOLA

This farm is easily found and can be reached by motorbike or car! Many travellers visit first before moving on to the city to view the spectacular art.

This winery pays high attention to detail and provides the following products for sale that are well known in fine wine circles.

Pergliamici

Riserva

Montarsiccio

Vin Santo

FATTORIA DI CORSIGNANO

When visiting Tuscany why not stay in luxury, right in the winery hillsides and enjoy all that this wonderful place has to offer including, wine tours, dinners and yes, wine tasting tours.

This 22 acre farm also sells some of the best wines from the Tuscany region and is a family run farm.

Below are some of the fine wines that are available today!

LA CASTELLINA

This winery steeped in history offers hotel style accommodation, wine tasting and tours. They also offer a banquet for groups larger than 16 and above, which I am told is just as spectacular as the countryside itself.

La Castellina also offer a wide range of products, displayed below!

I think you would have to agree that travelling to this region steeped in history of the arts and fine wines makes it a destination for all that want memories of a lifetime.

Also, let's not forget to mention that you can buy these classic wines straight from the winery itself and even meet the growers of their very own and proudly grown produce.
