Chianti Cooking Class

Meet your driver in the hotel lobby and depart for the Chianti area, one of the most prestigious DOCG regions where Chianti Classico is produced. Here, along the famous wine route “Chiantigiana,” hills of vineyards and olive groves provide the perfect backdrop for your journey. You will recognize the symbol of the Gallo Nero (black rooster) among the countryside and hilltop towns you will encounter, many of which owe their names to Chianti, such as Greve in Chianti.

Today, you will experience authentic Tuscan cuisine. Your personal chef will be waiting for you at a farmhouse immersed in vineyards and surrounded by olive trees. You will be introduced to the oldest and most traditional Tuscan recipes, and then you will start kneading with the chef! One of the most famous specialties is undoubtedly fresh pasta, such as pappardelle, tagliatelle, or tagliolini, stuffed with fresh ricotta and herbs, as well as potato gnocchi seasoned with traditional sauces. You will prepare one of these doughs on your own. The main course will be followed by a second course and a delicious dessert. You will learn some of our cuisine’s secrets, making it one of the best souvenirs you can bring home with you!

After the cooking lesson, you will enjoy the prepared meal accompanied by excellent Chianti Classico wines. Following lunch/dinner and some relaxation time, your personal driver will return you to your accommodation.
