We will then reach the first winery for the visit and the wine tasting of "Nobile": here the knowledgeable staff will explain in English all the winemaking process that is necessary to go through to make this fine wine. In the late morning we will move on to another winery< where, in addition to the wine tasting and the visit, you can stop for lunch, savoring some excellent local cuisine.For those who like this option better, it will be possible to have lunch inside the town walls that surround the historical center of Montepulciano, booking one of the many typical restaurants. After lunch we will reach the third winery, where we will end this day with the last “Nobile” wine tasting, bringing with us such a good memory of this wonderful experience. We will go back to your accommodation in the late afternoon.
