We had a great time. It was at slow relaxed pace. We went with the 7 wine version of the experience. The sommelier was very knowledgeable and both women who hosted the event were friendly and customer oriented. We ended up buying some of the wines we tasted and had them shipped back home. We would definitely recommend this activity to others. We decided to go to this particular tasting because it was right in the city so it wasn’t a half or full day outing. Obviously vineyard trips are awesome, but if your time is limited or you just want to stay in town, this was great.

Second time coming. Enjoyed it so much with my parents last year, I ended up bringing my husband this year and he loved it! So knowledgeable and great bites to go with the wine pairing. Would recommend time after time!
This was an excellent experience! The venue was very quaint with great food and wine. We learned about the wine and olive oil from the region. Highly recommend!
It was relaxing and the wines with the individual charcuterie boards were delicious. . Highly recommend for a nice time.

A lovely experience! Vinci was super informative and extremely personable. We learned quite a bit! 10/10
Fantastic wine tasting, wines were selected to match our tastes, hugely knowledgeable and friendly. Would definitely recommend
Terrific class for 1 person or 10. Nice selection (and portion) of wines and along with a charcuterie board. More than a snack, but less than lunch. Proprietor was very knowledgeable and friendly. Setting is in an Enoteca and tastings are spaced out. Great value too.
Vinci was wonderful and we enjoyed everything about our tasting. We learned about wine making in Italy and every wine was wonderful. The olive oil and cheese with compote was so delicious. Thanks for a great time!
The mentor was extremely knowledgeable about wines, vinting and terrior. She was very personable and engaging. It was a wonderful experience; I learned a lot.
Great experience! The guide had excellent knowledge of the area and wine. Answered all my questions. Beautiful establishment as well. Add this to your trip. You won’t be disappointed
Really lovely experienced - tailored to our preferences with fantastic charcuterie to accompany the tasting.
This was an amazing experience in Florence. My friends and I had such a great time. Our host Giorgio was better than we could have asked for. He answered all of our small wine knowledge questions and really helped us start to appreciate wine. We would totally suggest anyone who is looking in Florence to spend time here with friends or family.
Absolutely worth the visit the wines chosen were all excellent and very thought out on how we tasted them. The food pairing choices were all very good as well. The sommelier that we had was also wonderful very versed in her wines and information that she presented. Very interesting and very responsive to all the questions we asked. Would highly recommend this tasting and pairing in a very quaint location as well.
Vinci and their colleague were absolutely amazing. They guided us through the different wines of the region with so much knowledge and passion, and the pairings they selected were incredible and perfectly complemented each wine. They helped us with several tastings and were extremely attentive throughout, making sure we were comfortable and enjoying every moment. From the moment we walked in, they made us feel genuinely welcome. The venue itself was beautiful, clean, and inviting—and even the bathroom smelled amazing! A fantastic experience from start to finish. Highly recommend
This place is absolutely amazing. The owners are so gracious, knowledgeable, and accommodating. Vinci, one of the owners, was delightful. We tasted some of the most delicious wines and we thoroughly enjoyed the charcuterie. We are looking forward to retuning to the Vino Tasting Global Srl. Highly recommend this place for adults who enjoy wine.
This was the perfect introduction to wines from the region. Our sommelier was so kind and knowledgeable. She answered all of our questions and picked tastings based on our own preferences. We enjoyed all of our tastings (and the snack board) and learned so much about what makes a Tuscan wine so special. I’d recommend this experience to anyone!
Excellent experience. Beautiful shop and we got such a great personalized wine tasting. Very knowledgeable and personable. Would recommend!
Francesca was our Somaliere and was very knowledgeable about the wines and food pairings. She tailored the selected wines to our preferences and was respectful of our time as we squeezed this in prior to our departure. The location was a little hard to find at first.
Francesca was very informative and friendly and spent a lot of time sharing her knowledge of the local wines. The food was amazing too! I would definitely recommend this wine tasting experience.
This was a lovely tasting experience. Both ladies handling the tasting were sweet, knowledgeable, and helpful. They are able to customize the wine choices towards reds or whites, depending on your preference. And hours d’oeuvers were incredibly tasty. Highly recommend.
Experienced sommelier! Experts at pairing your tastes with the wine.. Wonderfull atmosphere for relaxation and reveling in the tastes of the delicious food offered. Out sommelier, Vinci was extremely knowledgable and really listened to our likes and loves.
This was a an absolutely lovely time, Francesca was so knowledgeable and awesome. The food was delicious and wine was amazing!
Had a fantastic time. Lorenzo is great and very knowledgeable about wines. He made it all the more pleasant.
Lorenzo was super friendly and informative. Delicious wines and beautifully prepared pairing snacks. Loved the experience, would definitely recommend.
Great experience, the sommeliers were very knowledgeable and the wine and snacks were great. They even provided a vegetarian snack plate for one vegetarian in our group.
This was a great, private, and welcoming tasting. Giorgio and Hesu were awesome in walking us through the wines and the pairings! I would recommend this to everyone if they are in town! You got a good amount of food and wine so very worth the price and time!
Vinci was great. Knowledgeable, informative, professional and made the tasting a great deal of fun. We would strongly recommend this wine tasting experience
The wine tasting was amazing. Vinci was a wonderful host who described each wine to us, what it goes well with, and the history behind each.
I would vive this a 7 star if I could. The hostess, Vinci, was very knowledgeable about the wines. Our tasting turned into a 4 hour experience.
This was amazing!! And so worth the money. We got to try 7 full glasses of amazing Tuscan Wine. We even got an extra 8th glass from our sommelier as well as a full plate of cheeses and meats to go with our wine. I couldn’t recommend this more to try wines in Florence.
We had such a fun time! Our host and hostess we're wonderful, vey knowledgable about all the wines we tried. The food was delicious too. Definitely an all around fun experience with our family.
The staff was amazing a knowledgeable about wine. So entertaining and friendly, plus the food was awesome. Not to mention the wine and food was a such a deal for the price point. Highlight of our trip could not have had more fun. Vinci, our server was amazing and so kind. She walked us through every bottle and was a great host. Best experience in Florence!!!!!!
I booked this experience as a gift to my partner. I have never done wine tasting before and wasn't sure what to expect but what a lovely experience. We tried things at our own pace, were offered alternatives to try and got so much interesting info from Vinci. Such an enjoyable evening. Thank you! Definitely recommend if you have an afternoon or evening free in Florence.
This experience made our trip to Florence so much more magical! Vinci and Hezu were so kind and knowledgeable about the food and wine that we were sharing. Not to mention, it was absolutely delicious! If you are visiting Florence and want a authentic Tuscan experience, you must book this!
Fantastic experience, venchi (sorry if I have misspelt) was so knowledgeable and nothing was too much hassle. We told her what we liked about the wines and she tailored her next choice for us to try and the food as delicious 10/10 would do it again
Phenomenal wine tasting and the staff made us feel at home. They catered to different wine level of experience’s.
We started early, around 14:30 and had a great time. Both the selection of wines (we took 7) and pairing where amazing. Also the personnel was really knowledgeable with a good balance of storytelling and leaving us to our tasting. A big reccomend!
Our guide filled us in on proper tasting techniques and the background of each wine we tried. Portions were very generous and they even tweaked the food to work within our tastes.
Our wine tasting experience was even more special than I had hoped. There were two other couples there, but our party of 4 sat at a private table. Stefanie was incredibly knowledgeable about all of the wines. The chef prepared two large appetizer platters to pair with our 7 glasses of wine. We had the opportunity to ask questions and to take our time and savor the ambiance, the wine, and enjoy our special Firenze evening.
A fabulous treat for any wine lover. Vinci was superb. The wines she gave us to sample were beautiful and she amended our offerings as she got to know our palates. Her food pairings were spot on and the entire experience is great value. Her knowledge of the wines and her ability to articulate the details (in English) was outstanding. Grazie mille!
This wine tasting was amazing! The food pairings were not small, we had so much food we were barely hungry for dinner. The wine was amazing, our host was lovely and we had great conversation. I ended up ordering bottles to ship home. For anyone else who likes to earn credit card miles, this place codes as a restaurant so I also got extra points on the wine purchase. They ask about any allergies and they do the tastings as you enter, so it feels very private. We had an amazing time and would do it again!
It was very nice. Good wines, nice atmosphere and a really good somelier. They could help us to send their great wines to Sweden . Very familiar and nice tasting.
Good selection of local wines with the opportunity to vary your selection during your event. Very knowledgeable guide and the food pairing was beautiful
