Brunello, which is thought to be the best wine in the world, can be traced back to the passion of the people who live in Montalcino and their traditional way of making wine –– passing down their techniques from generation to generation.

The village of Montalcino, considered the spiritual home of wine made from Sangiovese grapes, is perched on a picturesque hill that will allow you to take pleasure in the pure and unadulterated qualities of the wine. The main goal of our day trip is to see the city, which has a stronghold from more than a century ago and some of the best wineries in the area, according to readers of specialized publications.

Brunello, the holder of the little "Italian ambassador in the world of our winemaking reality," has the highest regard worldwide. This is due to the extraordinary techniques in the cellar, which included an extended maturation in casks made from valuable wood. You will see Montalcino and the beautiful countryside around it, and you will taste famous wines at some of the best vineyards and wineries in the area.
