Siena: A Wine Tour and Tasting Experience

absolutely stunning and charming place! delicious wine and food and amazing hosts and guides. I was obsessed with all the winery cats. So adorable!

This tour was a highlight of our two week Italy trip!! We were lucky enough to have our tour lead by the owner and winemaker himself. He was so passionate and great at explaining things. The lunch and wine portion was delicious. The whole property was beautiful. I highly recommend this experience!

Great vineyard experience. Very educational - which we enjoyed thoroughly! Wine was delicious and the owners were so friendly! The lunch was delicious- better than some restaurants. Highly recommend

This is a great tour. I can’t remember the winemaker/owner’s name but he provided a fantastic description of how he honors the tradition of Chianti making and doing it in an organic manner. The wines were good, especially the rose. Was almost a 4 hour experience with a nice lunch. We would HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

Everything was amazing!! Renalto was so knowledgeable and passionate about the wine and vineyards! The wine and food pairings were amazing!! Thank you La Lastra for a wonderful experience!!

We had a Delicious Tuscan lunch without any dairy as I requested..the wine was wonderful, the tour informative and the scenery was breathtaking

Enjoyed the small group. The guide very knowledgeable about the science of running a vineyard. I didnt like standing for an hour lustening to jom. Enjoyed the lunch.

The wine was wonderful and the lunch was fantastic. Learned a lot about grapes and the olive trees that I never knew!!

A must visit! We have been on many winery tours but none as informative as this one. So much passion for the work that is done on this family farm. The wine was all excellent. We ordered a case to be delivered back to the USA. We will definitely reorder. You will leave happy that you came!!

This was the perfect wine tour. Christian was a wonderful host and extremely knowledgeable and passionate about wine and the environment. The vineyard was beautiful, wine and food were excellent. Family was warm and welcoming. Would not miss this tour.

This was a very informative and interesting talk. We really enjoyed it and learned so much. Thank you! The wine tasting and lunch were outstanding. I highly recommend it.

Experience like no other. The owner went into great detail on what is involved in the operation of his vineyard. We toured beautiful vista of rolling terrain of grapes and olive trees and the cellar before sitting down for an authentic lunch of homemade pasta and dessert while doing our wine tasting. Wines were remarkable and affordable. It is obvious the family is passionate about their wine. It was shown from the minute you arrive until you depart with the genuine hospitality they shared.

Incredible tour and one of the best meals I have ever had in Italy. I hope to return one day. Did this before we went to Sienna Cathedral.

Incredible wine tour with an extremely knowledgeable guide name Gian Luigi. His knowledge was very engaging and i extremely enjoyed listening to Gian Luigi. The wine tasting was excellent. We tasted 5 different wines and a very tasty light lunch which included ravioli, dried tomatoes and dried prosciutto salad. I would highly recommend this tour. Grazie Gian Luigi, Nadia and Angela.

This experience was a highlight of my time in Tuscany. It was a last minute decision to do this tour and it was exceptional. The family run farm and winery La Lastre is located about a 20 minute drive from the centre of Siena. The views from the fields are stunning. Christian, one of the owners, was the guide for our small group. His agricultural knowledge is outstanding and his passion for farming in more environmentally conscious ways formed the framework for all the information he shared. The winery itself is small and we had the opportunity to taste wines that were only 200 bottle runs. His explanations of all the wines were detailed and they were all excellent. In our original tastings, the food pairings were suggested and then we were able to taste them all again, paired with specific food. The food was all prepared by his sister Nadia and was also all excellent. The tasting and courtyard areas are lovely and this whole experience feels very intimate. This is a must do if you are visiting Siena!

The most informative winery tour I’ve experienced. I’m a science nerd, so I very much loved the scientific approach/educational detail we were given. The wines and the paired lunch were delicious. Loved this tour!

Christian was very good at explaining the family business from the history to the science of it and to final bottle stakes. Very well done!
