Wine Tastings in Florence - Tuscany

Guided tours to wine cellars and bars in Florence

The sommeliers of our restaurant Santa Elisabetta, will be pleased to take you into our wine cellar to taste renowned tuscan wines. In the surroundings of Florence you will also have the opportunity to visit some of the most important winery producers and their wine cellars.

We can recommend you special visits to the wine cellars in Florence and its surroundings: from the world famous Antinori winery that produces the “Supertuscan” Tignanello, Solaia and Chianti, to the equally impressive Frescobaldi winery that produces the famous Chianti Montesodi.

Those who wish to spend their time tasting Tuscany wines will be spoilt for choice of many wine cellars and wine bars in Florence.

Some of these are listed below:

Le strade di Bacco (Bacco’s streets)
To get the mythical Supertuscan Sassicaia, by Marchese Incisa della Rocchetta, you have to travel to Bolgheri just a two hours driving from Florence. Here you will also find the winner of the 1998 Wine Spectator award: the Ornellaia from the same winery.
