Highlights

There's a particular kind of confidence that comes from knowing what to actually do with a bottle of wine — not just enjoying it, but understanding it. That's what this class is for. Over 75 relaxed minutes at La Chicca, we walk you through how to open, serve, and taste wine the way it's really done, no pretension involved, just skills you'll keep long after you've left Florence. You'll work through six standout Italian wines — Chianti, Brunello di Montalcino, Amarone, and Barolo among them — each paired with local cheeses, olive oils, and crostini, so you're tasting the way Tuscans actually eat and drink together. It's a lovely way to spend part of a Tuscan vacation, whether as a couple, with the whole family, gathering the team for something different, or just looking for the right thing to do on a rainy Florence afternoon — one of those things to do in Florence that actually teaches you something.

About Florence

Florence, the cradle of the Renaissance, gathers masterpieces of art and architecture into a compact city of stone streets beside the Arno.

The Duomo, with Brunelleschi's great red-brick dome, Giotto's bell tower and the Baptistery's gilded doors, marks the centre of town. A few streets away, Piazza della Signoria and the Palazzo Vecchio face a loggia full of sculpture, and the Uffizi Gallery holds Botticelli, Leonardo and Raphael. Michelangelo's David stands in the Galleria dell'Accademia.

Top-ranked sights in Florence: Piazza della Signoria, Uffizi Galleries (Gallerie degli Uffizi), Florence Duomo (Cattedrale di Santa Maria del Fiore).
