What To Expect

Discover the authentic flavors of Tuscany with a hands-on cooking class and guided wine tasting near the medieval town of San Gimignano.

You’ll start by learning how to make fresh pasta from scratch—just like Italian grandmothers used to do. Guided by local instructors, you’ll prepare different shapes of pasta and traditional sauces using seasonal, local ingredients. No experience is needed, and all tools and ingredients are provided.

After the class, sit down and enjoy the meal you prepared, paired with a selection of high-quality Tuscan wines. During the tasting, you’ll learn about local grape varieties and the winemaking traditions of the region, including the famous Vernaccia di San Gimignano.

This is an unforgettable way to connect with Tuscan culture through food, wine, and genuine hospitality.
