OVERVIEW

This tour is intended for guests who have limited mobility, rely on a cane or walker, or for guests’ companions.

Settle in for a spectacularly scenic drive into Tuscany and enjoy its extraordinary wines and cheeses. The farther inland you travel, the more rural the landscape. Upon reaching Val d’Orica – a UNESCO World Heritage site for its Renaissance character – you will stop at the Ciacci Piccolomini winery in Montalcino. This medieval town is revered for its Brunello di Montalcino, a ruby-red wine that can only be produced from Sangiovese grapes in a very specific part of Southern Tuscany. A tasting will reveal the attributes of this beloved high-tannin wine with an exceptionally bold fruit flavor. You will also have the chance to explore the medieval village of San Quirico d’Orcia before continuing on to Pienza to sample its legendary Pecorino cheese, which has been produced the same way for thousands of years. The setting will be as memorable as the tasting as UNESCO declared Pienza a World Heritage site for its innovative Renaissance town planning.

HIGHLIGHTS

• Drive through Val d’Orcia, a Tuscan valley that has maintained its Renaissance-era setting.
• Appreciate the reasons UNESCO declared Val d’Orcia a World Heritage site.
• Enjoy a tasting of Pecorino cheese in Pienza, another UNESCO World Heritage site.
• Sample Brunello di Montalcino red wines made entirely from Sangiovese grapes.
• Spend time in the medieval village of San Quirico d’Orcia.

HELPFUL HINTS
