A nearly 9,000-square-mile region of rolling verdant hills, salty coastline, and picturesque hilltop hamlets, Tuscany is an incredible play land for the eno-curious. The region's heavy-hitters are many, from Chianti Classico, to Brunello, and Vino Nobile di Montepulciano—and, of course, the famous Super Tuscans. It's filled with landmark wineries and epic winemakers who know it, so they've created incredible experiences and tasting rooms to attract visitors, from fairytale to futuristic, combing natural landscapes with award-winning architects. Whether you've only got time for a light tasting or want to make a day out of a full regional experience, we've got you covered. Exploring this countryside is the tastiest way to truly understand Tuscany, which is why we've picked our favorite wine tours and wine tastings in Florence.
![grape wine tours florence Italy Florence Winery Badia a Cultibuono](https://media.cntraveler.com/photos/5be9f52bd1f6b12d395570f6/master/w_320%2Cc_limit/Badia-a-Cultibuono_coltibuono_esterni_0042.jpg)
Badia a Coltibuono Arrow
Badia a Coltibuono is set in a beautiful landscape of rich greens near Siena. Its charming medieval building, a historic abbey with a romantic atmosphere, looks like the backdrop to a Raffaello painting. Guests reserve their Chianti tasting in advance, so you can be sure that everyone here has done their research—you'll be in good company. The entry-level wine tasting, though well planned, doesn't include snacks. If you're looking for a bite, go for the more advanced tasting, which includes charcuterie and bruschetta.

Cantina Salcheto Arrow
Cantina Salcheto enjoys an enviable and jaw-dropping location—in the beautiful hills of Montepulciano—and manages to toe the line between rustic and futuristic, if that's possible. The 40-acre main vineyard is Tuscany at its best: rolling hills, rich colors, and a state-of-the-art cellar that's impressive in looks and, of course, in inventory—here, you're drinking Rosso di Toscana IGT and Vino Nobile di Montepulciano DOCG. There's no food in the basic tasting, but you can upgrade to the paired tasting or enjoy lunch at Salcheto's onsite enoteca.
![grape wine tours florence Italy Florence Winery Rocca di Frassinello Winery](https://media.cntraveler.com/photos/5c3cce1596678b2d01c0013a/master/w_320%2Cc_limit/Rocca-di-Frassinello-Winery-_2018Rocca-di-Frassinello_vigne_top.jpg)
Rocca di Frassinello Arrow
Rocca di Frassinello is a beautiful and modernist winery designed by Italian architect Renzo Piano. The feat of geometry—whose rich ambers and reds seem to fold into the greens of Grosseto along Tuscany's coastline—is a must-stop for architecture buffs and oenophiles alike. Rocca di Frassinello isn't the kind of place you just happen upon—Maremma, in the south of Tuscany, is rugged cowboy country, so there are no crowds; rather, you'll be tasting cult favorite wines alongside well-researched and well-traveled culture vultures.
![grape wine tours florence Italy Florence Distillery Ornellaia](https://media.cntraveler.com/photos/5bf353c639e38a098037b4c2/master/w_320%2Cc_limit/Ornellaia---Quercia-di-Bellaria-(Media)-2.jpeg)
Ornellaia Arrow
Ornellaia, which produces superb Super Tuscans that most can only dream of tasting, is one of the most exclusive wineries in Tuscany, and it's the perfect place to come with wine-loving friends. The landscape itself is worth the trip, with verdant and beautifully landscaped hills dotted with castle and towers here and there along the coastline between Livorno and Grosseto. Visitors will gain a fully immersive lesson in the world of winemaker Axel Heinz's Super Tuscans and innovative wines, which are favorites among collectors sommeliers the world over.
![grape wine tours florence Italy Florence Winery Castello di Ama](https://media.cntraveler.com/photos/5be9f014dd9fc604c4ec26fc/master/w_320%2Cc_limit/Castello-di-Ama_DanielBuren2_Alessandro-Moggi.jpg)
Castello di Ama Arrow
Located in a beautiful medieval hilltop town just north of Siena in Chianti, Castello di Ama feels like an old-fashioned fairytale—one that also happens to be a destination for contemporary art. Lush vineyards produce award-winning wine; gardens are a backdrop to 14 site-specific works and installations by 13 international artists, a combination that attracts wine connoisseurs and art lovers alike. The tour and tasting of Chianti Classico Riserva DOCG also includes bruschetta, though if you're looking for something heartier, the surrounding picturesque village has an enoteca.
![grape wine tours florence Italy Florence Winery Franco Biondi Santi Tenuta Greppo](https://media.cntraveler.com/photos/5be5bf4890e25c2d60bee1c1/master/w_320%2Cc_limit/Franco-Biondi-Santi-%25E2%2580%2593-Tenuta-Greppo__N0Z9944.jpg)
Biondi Santi Tenuta Greppo Arrow
One of the most popular wineries in the world, Biondi Santi's tours and tastings are superbly rated—for good reason. This is the seat of Brunello di Montalcino, one of the most popular reds coming out of Tuscany around the world. When you book, you're asked a series of questions relating to your knowledge of and interest in wine; from there, you'll be matched with a guide and tour type. Even those with little (or no) knowledge can enjoy the sweeping views and the history of the vineyard, as well as the universally edifying experience of learning about a trade and practice.
![grape wine tours florence Italy Florence Winery Antinori nel Chianti Classico](https://media.cntraveler.com/photos/5be9f25290e25c2d60bee1eb/master/w_320%2Cc_limit/H6FCYM.jpg)
Antinori Nel Chianti Classico Arrow
Antinori nel Chianti Classico is nothing if not monumental: a striking contemporary sculptural edifice that epitomizes the winery's impact on Italy's history and culture. Antinori is one of the biggest (if not the biggest) producers of wine, and one of the most historic: the label defined, and then redefined, Chianti Classico, upgrading it from a table wine to a prestige one. The architecture, designed by Marco Casamonti, best exemplifies this grandeur. Antinori plays the classics; expect plenty of silky Chianti Classico.
Altesino Arrow
Altesino is a postcard-perfect Italian country villa off a charming dirt road in the Montalcino hills. The late-14th-century Palazzo Altesino sets the stage for an elegant wine. Visits are private; often it's only you, your group, and the winemaker. The focus is Altesino's award-winning wines, from Brunello di Montalcino DOCG to Rosso di Montalcino, and you can also a enjoy a decent snacks pairing. The beautiful location promises to win everyone over, no matter how much they know about wine.
![grape wine tours florence Italy Florence Tours Divine Tours](https://media.cntraveler.com/photos/5be9f77e2e350417aea9dca9/master/w_320%2Cc_limit/Divine-Tours-Inc.-Dba-Divine-Tours-Italy_IMG_1250_Divine-Tours-Inc.-Dba-Divine-Tours-Italy.jpg)
DiVine Tours Arrow
DiVine Tours offers a series of bespoke wine tours around Tuscany and other select parts of Italy—Umbria, Sicily, Puglia, and Piedmont, among others—all of which are highly personalized and professional. Miriam, DiVine's owner and founder, is a consummate professional who hires top-notch guides and experts. Her tours are very organized and very easy to understand, and you can customize pretty much everything. These tours are excellent for those interested in attaining robust knowledge of area wineries and their history, but they're not for people who don't like wine.
![grape wine tours florence Italy Florence Winery Volpaia](https://media.cntraveler.com/photos/5be9f84790e25c2d60bee1ef/master/w_320%2Cc_limit/Volpaia_DSC00164H.jpg)
Volpaia Arrow
A walled hamlet on a Chianti hill, Volpaia is the quintessential Tuscan wine fantasy visit. The town itself is charming and the castle drips with Florentine history, having served as a key defensive outpost for the Florentine Republic during its heyday. Volpaia wines are exceptional Chianti Classicos, and that's what you'll learn about on a private tour. The staff is very personable and friendly—but most importantly, they know and love Volpaia, and that enthusiasm is infectious.
![grape wine tours florence Podere le Ripi Winery overhead Val d'Orcia](https://media.cntraveler.com/photos/5a9346bd89971c2c547af1e0/master/w_320%2Cc_limit/Podere-le-Ripi-winery_2018_Winery-and-vineyards-from-above-(1).jpg)
Podere Le Ripi Arrow
A beautiful Tuscan drive through winding rustic roads ends at Podere le Ripi, a photogenic winery with a modern reception and tasting area. Winemaker Francesco Illy (of the Illy coffee family) is known industry-wide as an innovator; his wines are biodynamic—and he himself is dynamic, too. After a tasting and snack, you'll leave with one key takeaway: that you can at once embrace and buck tradition while still creating great wine.
![grape wine tours florence Italy Florence Winery Fèlsina](https://media.cntraveler.com/photos/5c3ccf64fdd6962d130412c3/master/w_320%2Cc_limit/Fe%25CC%2580lsina_R886XF.jpg)
Fèlsina Arrow
Felsina's picture-perfect stone entrance comes into view after you've slowly meandered around the hills and valleys of Chianti—and what a sight it is. Here, the mentality is purist; everything you eat comes from the surrounding land. The olive oil is from single cultivars, and the oil-making process strictly adheres to Veronelli's rules of pressing. You can have a simple Chianti wine tasting, a wine tasting with a light lunch, or a wine and olive oil tasting with lunch alongside other wine lovers, culinary travelers, and anyone interested in the hows and whys of wine- and olive-making.

Who we are & what we do
We're Grape!
What sets Grape Tours apart is our extensive knowledge of Italy's wine regions, backed by three decades of experience in the wine industry. This experience has granted us valuable connections to some of the finest wineries, many of which prioritize sustainable and organic viticulture—an aspect that holds great importance for us.
We are committed to the belief that life is too short to drink bad wine, and our personal and professional goal is to always feature high-quality selections in our itineraries. Our approach to wine is comprehensive, with storytelling playing a crucial role in our tours.
Grape Tours was founded by Rebecca and Pierre, and we are actively involved in every aspect of the business. Our dedicated team comprises wine professionals whom we've proudly gathered over the years. If you have any questions and reach out via email , you'll likely hear from Ilaria Miele , one of our earliest team members. The rest of the team looks forward to meeting you at our designated meeting poin t in Florence.
HGTV / MAX is airing Fixer to Fabulous Italiano where our friends Dave & Jenny Marrs help us renovate our farmhouse, Campo Sasso.
Rebecca Christophersen Gouttenoire launched the tuscan-wine-tours.com website in 2004, laying the groundwork for Grape Tours. Driven by her deep passion for Tuscan wine, she recognized the growing demand for high-quality wine tours among increasingly well-traveled guests. Leveraging her prior connections established during her tenure as a wine bar owner in Florence and later as a wine distributor, she shaped Grape Tours into a reputable venture.
Rebecca holds certification as an Italian Wine Scholar educator and offers wine education programs catering to both beginners and professionals.
Rebecca personally runs all the multiple-day Grapetrotters trips in Italy.
Rebecca writes the newslette rs and once in a while on the blog .
Rebecca and Pierre are a couple in business in life with 2 boys and a dog.
Here you can read the full version of how Rebecca & Pierre met which is quite a nice story!
Pierre Gouttenoire, co-founder of Grape Tours, is a French winemaker and enologist holding a M.Sc degree in agronomy. With over 15 years of experience, he has worked for leading wine companies in France.
Pierre enjoys to spend time on the family farm called Campo Sasso in Chianti Classico where he tends to a small vineyard, an olive grove and a cheese cellar.
Campo Sasso is an old farmhouse renovation that was also featured on HGTV's Fixer to Fabulous Italiano.
From time to time, Pierre guides tours in France and occasionally in Tuscany for connoisseurs, but his primary role is overseeing the seamless operation of the business.
Pierre's childhood in Roquefort, in the south of France, fostered his passion for cheese. Consequently, he manages the purchasing and aging of cheeses for Formaggioteca Terroir, a Cheese & Wine Bar that the couple established in downtown Florence.
Both Rebecca and Pierre hold certificates of Olive Oil Experts and produce and export their own prime quality organic extra virgin olive oil .
