Enjoy also an authentic Tuscan lunch with antipasti Toscani (bruschetta, pecorino cheese, Tuscan cured meat), some lasagna with truffle oil, traditional ribollita bread soup and cantuccini biscuits as dessert. Here you will learn how to recognize the different flavours and develop your taste buds with a passionate wine producer.
