Truffle Hunting & Sommelier-Guided Wine Tasting at a Historic Family-Run Winery with Cellar Visit & Vineyard Tour in San Gimignano

Description

Immerse yourself in the fascinating world of truffle hunting! We will begin with a brief introduction to the secrets of truffles and the faithful dogs trained for this unique activity. Then, we will enter the surrounding woods near San Gimignano, in search of the precious ripe truffles.

Every exploration is an adventure: we never know how many truffles we will find, but the thrill of discovery is guaranteed. Sometimes the harvest is abundant, other times less, but thanks to my experience in choosing the right woods, the chances of success are always high.

At the end of the experience, each participant will receive a few free fresh truffles, along with precious advice on how to enjoy and enhance them at their best. An unforgettable experience that will bring you into contact with nature and one of its most delicious treasures!

Experience an authentic wine tasting in the heart of San Gimignano. Perfect for small groups, this tastings provide an intimate and welcoming atmosphere, far from the usual tourist traps.

This historic winery is renowned for producing high-quality wines with a strong sense of identity, the result of a rare and demanding choice: preserving and restoring historic vineyards dating back to the 1960s rather than replacing them with modern plantings.
The white wines, grown exclusively on tuffaceous soils, are fresh, elegant, and aromatic, while the red wines, cultivated on rock-rich, well-drained terrain, offer structure, depth, and excellent aging potential, in line with long-standing local tradition.

The winery’s philosophy combines modern winemaking techniques with traditional knowledge, enhancing natural yeasts and respecting the wine’s natural evolution to create authentic, distinctive wines that cannot be replicated elsewhere.

The experience includes a guided wine tasting led by a professional sommelier, featuring four wines from the estate, along with a guided tour of the wine cellar and vineyards.
The tasting is paired with fresh truffle bruschetta, local cured meats, and cheeses, creating a refined and immersive journey through the flavors and character of the region.

A complete experience that blends wine, craftsmanship, and territory in a truly authentic setting.
