Chianti & Supertuscan Private Tour 2 Wineries with light lunch

Our driver Simona picked us up promptly on time and was extremely friendly and helpful to us at every point of our tour. She made a special point of asking about our interests and offering to stop at places so we could take pictures or to slow down so that we could take pictures out the window. She even asked if it was OK to travel on the four-lane highway to the part of Tuscany that we were headed to So that we could get to the back roads areas that we were most interested in faster. Simone insight and conversation greatly added to our enjoyment of the visit and to our knowledge of the areas of Chanti that we were touring. We went to two wineries and both were excellent. The staff at both wineries was very welcoming and generous with their time because they were actually pressing grapes when we arrived, and they took us into the areas where they were working their machinery so that we could see the process of destemming, crushing grapes and pumping the juice and, for the older juice,separating juice from seeds and skins. The wines we tried were excellent, and we actually bought a case that they are going to deliver to our house in Virginia. The last of the two wineries that we visited, provided an excellent lunch described as a late lunch, but we could not eat at all. It was so much fun, eating their food and drinking their wine. We were very interested in seeing the Tuscan countryside and learning more about vent culture there. We saw a lot, we learned a lot, and we had great fun doing it.
