Caption: I have always wanted to learn more about the art of wine making, and what better place to do that, then in Tuscany. I booked a small group tour of 3 Chianti wineries with the company Tuscany Tour Time, whose guides specialise in wine tours.

Caption: Our first stop was Fattoria di Bagnola, where we met the hilarious owner Giovanna. She really made our visit to this winery special, and helped break the ice with the group.

Caption: We loved two of the bottles, the first was a DOCG, which had a smokey taste, and the second was a Chianti Classico.
It can be difficult to choose from all the different wine tours on offer in Florence, but I would highly recommend Tuscany tour time, the staff were extremely friendly and we learned a lot!
