About This Tour

A private, wine-focused full-day tour to Montalcino and Montepulciano, meeting local producers and tasting Brunello and Vino Nobile at the source. Visit the medieval town of Montalcino, home of Brunello di Montalcino wine, tasting this prized wine at a real winery and learning about the area's winemaking heritage and history directly from local producers.

Brunello di Montalcino as it's made today traces back to one family's experiment. In the mid-19th century, a local farmer named Clemente Santi isolated a particular Sangiovese clone — locally called Brunello — to make a wine built to age for years rather than drink young. His grandson, Ferruccio Biondi-Santi, released what's considered the first modern vintage in 1888, and for decades the Biondi-Santi estate was the only producer making it commercially; by the 1960s that had grown to 11 producers, and in 1980 Montalcino became the first Italian wine region ever awarded DOCG status, the country's highest classification.

Vino Nobile di Montepulciano's roots go back even further on paper — a document from 789 AD records vineyard land near Montepulciano being gifted to the church, one of the oldest written traces of winemaking anywhere in Tuscany. Its modern prestige took longer to formalize: Vino Nobile earned DOC status in 1966 and, in 1980, the very same year as Brunello, became the first Tuscan wine to reach DOCG.

Hearing both stories from producers themselves — rather than off a tasting sheet — is really the point of a tour built around wine rather than general sightseeing: the difference between knowing a wine is "prestigious" and actually hearing, from the family that's been making it for generations, why it earned that reputation in the first place.
