Italian Wine Trip
I am in Chablis having just enjoyed a nigh on perfect lunch, which included an epic bottle of 2001 Grand Cru Chablis. We are about to be on our way to one of the more exciting tastings i have had the opportunity to attend ever. I will not give the name of the producer as i do not want to jinx the hope that we may be able to bring the wines in to Ontario.
The dates for this trip are May 25th through May 31st 2018.
While we at WineOnline.ca get to do this stuff quite regularly, the average wine lover does not. We have been asked on countless occasions to create a wine trip for our clients. We have created something AMAZING. This is a guided trip through Tuscany and Piemonte where we will be taken on behind the scenes tours and tasting of some of the top wineries in the regions in Tuscany and Piemonte:
1) Il Palazzino
2) Castelo di Brolio
3) Uccelliera
4) La Colombina
5) Ceretto
6) Cavallotto
7) Manzone
We have chosen a mix of larger and smaller world class wineries to ensure everything stays interesting and we avoid repetition. We will dine at Michelin star restaurants including Piazza Duomo in Alba which has 3 stars and has reached number 15 on the list of the world’s top 50 restaurants.
There will be a cooking class in Tuscany, a stop in Emilia Romania on the way from Tuscany to Piemonte to sample some parmesan cheese and what rivals the world’s greatest ham. We will also have the opportunity to visit the 13th century family run factory of Aceto Balsamico.
There are a whole host of other awesome activities including Truffle hunting in Piemonte, visiting Unesco heritage castles, pasta making etc.
The hotels are spectacular and there is only 1 day of transit between Tuscany and Piemonte. This is the way we would travel if we were able to do so. We took our favourite parts of Tuscany and Piemonte and included them in 1 amazing trip.
There is not a lot of space, a bunch of people jumped on this bandwagon before we could even offer it out. OUT OF A TOTAL OF 18 SPACES, THERE ARE 8 REMAINING. These will be sold 1st come, 1st served.
Last, but not least, the price:
The cost of the trip is $6,495/PP based on double occupancy. Yes, this is a trip to enjoy with someone you love. 50% deposit due at the time of booking with the balance due 30 days prior to departure. Flights are NOT included.
There may be small changes to the itinerary, but most of it is set in stone.
Should you have questions, or want the document outlining the trip emailed to you, please reply to this email, or reach out to me directly at [email protected].
Hoping you can join us.
