Pienza and Montepulciano food and wine tour from Siena

Fancy a day among art, culture, wine and delicious food in fabled Tuscany? Spend a day in two wonderful towns where you will have the opportunity to taste the best wines, cheeses and typical products. The tour begins with a visit to a local cellar in the area of Val d'Orcia, where you will taste a sampling of wines coupled with delicious snacks.You will then visit Pienza and Montepulciano, the two artistic jewels set against the backdrop of the spectacular Val d'Orcia. Montepulciano is a lovely town characterized by stately Renaissance buildings, beautifully refined churches, and an ancient winemaking tradition. Pienza, instead, boasts a perfect balance of architectural beauty and sweeping vistas, and is home to a series of quaint, atypically named lanes that overlook the breathtaking Val d'Orcia landscape. The region's natural and artistic heritage is enhanced by mouthwatering aromas and flavors, most notably Pienza's prized Pecorino cheese, which is made following a centuries-old practice.
