Guided tour & Wine and Olive Oil tasting at Lignanello in the Val d'Orcia
Here is what's in store for you
Embark on an immersive journey into the very soul of Lignanello, a cherished artisanal winery nestled amidst the captivating landscape of Val d'Orcia. This comprehensive experience invites you to delve into the heart of Lignanello's world — a world rich in history, artisanal products, and distinctive local specialties that define this remarkable region.
Your adventure begins with a guided tour that will give you a glimpse into Lignanello's production philosophy. Stroll through the vineyard, where the majestic Sangiovese reigns supreme. As you stroll, you'll follow paths that resonate with generations of history, leading you to the cellar, an exceptional space carved into the millions-of-years-old Pliocene rock. Here, the wines mature in French oak barrels, nourished by the ideal humidity created by the surrounding rock.
The tasting, the highlight of this experience, includes four Lignanello wines:
- SAGGIOLO Toscana IGT, a harmonious macerated white wine with a blend of primary and tertiary aromas;
- PELTRINO Toscana IGT, a fresh, youthful, and vibrant gastronomic rosé;
- BANDOLO Toscana Rosso IGT, a true Sangiovese, the embodiment of simplicity and freshness;
- CONTRASTI Orcia DOC, a robust wine aged in small oak barrels.
This delightful wine journey is rounded off with a tasting of the estate's own extra virgin olive oil, paired with bruschetta and a selection of delicious local products: organic cured meats from local wild pigs and Pecorino di Pienza cheese.
