We had a wine tasting in the afternoon and the sommelier was extremely knowledgeable and friendly and asked us several questions to determine what we would like to sample during our tasting. Overall great experience if you want a quick in and out wine sampling
It was a small group tasting, with individual tables per size of your party. The host was friendly and knowledgeable. The wine was just ok. Only 3 types of wine. Overall it was a good experience but not great.
The sommelier was knowledgeable and each table was treated separately and given tailored information. The food was good but was not tailored to the wines. Overall, we it was an excellent experience.
Absolutely brilliant. Very knowledgeable. Great wines & food. Lovely setting. Very enjoyable. Fabulous service
The host knew a lot about the wines in Italy. I learned a lot from her knowledge and she is very passionate about sharing it. She picked out three wines and I enjoyed the Chianti Classico reserve. The wine was paired with a small charcuterie plate with bread and their olive oil.
Interesting wines and very well explained by the sonmelier. The food pairing was great as well blending well with the wines
Best tour/activity we have done so far. The teacher was very informative and showed us extra pasta shapes because we had extra time. Pasta and tiramisu were delicious. They send you home with the recipes with is an added bonus. Definitely need to put this on your list to do when you come to Florence.
Excellent experience. Lady very knowledgeable and answered all our questions on delicious wines and platter of food
Short notice booking and had a great time! Very knowledgeable on all the wines and delicious snacks. Highly recommend!
I don’t drink wine but my husband and it was my anniversary to him and actually had 3 glass two white and rose and the rose wine for me they are knowledgeable and very nice staff very place quiet but great for this type of tour
The wines we tasted were great. We loved the atmosphere and enjoyed our tasting very much. They served small bites which were perfectly paired with the different wines. Absolutely worth coming here.
Great and educational wine tasting. Highly recommend. Great wine. White, Rose, and Red. Food was plentiful and accomatiobs can be made for any palate.
Perfect way to spend the afternoon. Beautiful place, just perfect for a tasting and staff are so knowledgeable about wine. The food that was perfectly paired with it was delicious. Would HIGHLY recommend and will be back again to try another group of wines.
Cute wine shop. Super personable and great wines! Also great charcuterie! Everyone was super friendly!
We stepped inside a charming historic building and encountered the most wonderful way to learn about Tuscan wines. Here we met people who adore their country, their culture and love explaining everything that makes Tuscany legendary. Plus everyone at all the tables were chatting with each other comparing what they loved about each wine they were tasting so the room had a fun collegial atmosphere. The tasting included a delicious charcuterie board that made it complete experience. We were lucky enough to have Vinci as our host. She is one of the owners and gives a spectacular presentation of every wine. She has outstanding knowledge of all the wineries and varietals. Vino Tasting was an easy walk from the Duomo, tucked down a quiet lane next to the leather market. It was the most memorable experience of our trip to Florence.
Iexperience was great! Just was very knowledgable about wine and tailored our tastings to what we preferred.
We booked this last minute and didn’t know what to expect based on the mixed reviews. It was awesome. Big tasting pours, they modified the food based on my vegetarian diet. The wines were great and the food pairing was awesome. Highly recommend !!
Vinci was amazing. She was very knowledgeable and an absolute pleasure to listen to. I walked in with a love for vino and I walked out with a love for Vinci 😍🍷
Incredibly knowledgeable of the wine, the history and the locale. Wonderful customer service from start to finish!
Very good presentation of Italian wines paired with local meats and cheeses. Knowledgeable host who brings alot of interest to the tastings. Would recomend this just off the busy streets, well decorated and quiet place to everyone
Excellent way to start our visit to Florence. A beautiful cozy shop. The wine was excellent. Vinci wanted us to have best experience and curated our tasting to our personal wine preferences. The food was also amazing. This experience should not be missed
I am a snobby California wine lover. I have never had a better wine tasting experience than vino tasting. The wine and food pairings were great but the knowledge and passion for wine from the management was beyond compare.
Weak. More food than wine. Very small wine tasting.(sip) Better off going to any restaurant and getting a glass of wine to sample for the cost that would be a better value. A lot of history talk but little substance.
Waste of time and money. There was me and one other person. 3 wines were poured. She spoke about the 3 and we got a small pate/bread plate and it was over.
Francesca was very knowledgeable and helpful, and we appreciated the quiet setting & chill music. We just didn’t feel the value was very good for the price we paid. Pours were small, which I know is typical in wine tastings so no problem with that, but for $30pp I would’ve thought there would be more than 3. Based on the description we also expected more info/pairing info.
A brilliant experience in a really nice setting with relaxing music. Vinci the host offered us to choose which coloured wines we wanted to sample and then she recommended 3 for us to try and explained all about them, the rose was sooo good and the reds also ! The food was lovely and we were advised if we wanted more just to ask…. Elizabeth also very friendly there….and took a photo for us… A great experience and really good value for money !
Fantastic and informative. Enjoyed wine and food parings. Nice way to start our day in Florence! Thanks for the suggestion.
This was an amazing experience. It was 10 of us and Lorenzo ensured we had a wonderful time! Very friendly environment!
We had a fun afternoon wine tasting with Vinci as our hostess. Her knowledge of the wines was very good. The various wines we tasted were delicious, as was the cold meat, cheese and bread platter. They organised me a separate vegetarian plate which was excellent and much appreciated. We had an enjoyable time and highly recommend this experience.
My husband and I had a great time at this tasting. Vinci was great and knew her wines! Wonderful charcuterie included as well
The wines and food were amazing, our sommelier was well knowledgeable and attentive - great overall experience!
It was a great way to appreciate local wine and finger food. Our guide was very knowledgable on local wine.
Great experience and tasty wine. The staff was very friendly and the picked out the wine according to my preferences.
Really enjoyed my time here. Our hostess was really good and provided a ton of information on the wines we tasted. I felt like I learned a lot. It was just us in the restaurant which made it feel intimate. I enjoyed the food they provided. Overall, would recommend especially if you’re not much of a wine drinker and want to try it.
Excellent wines and very informative host, the food accompaniment was really good also pairing well with each wine.
La experiencia es un cata de tres vinos, todos espectaculares, las muchachas fueron extremadamente amables y nos explicaron con lujo de detalle cada vino. El sitio es muy lindo y todo el personal fue super agradable, 1000/10 la experiencia. Volvería sin duda alguna.
Very engaging and stimulating experience. The tasting was exceptional and explained in a very meticulous way. Congratulations! Also the food much appreciated! Brave!
I booked the tasting with three types of wine and it was all great! The food and wines were really excellent. Thanks to the staff, who made everything so authentic and memorable. Highly recommended! See you guys soon!
Vincenza and Renato accompanied us on a sensory journey worthy of Florence. An unforgettable experience, absolutely worth repeating! Thank you very much
Beautiful experience... the products served are sought after and quality (something that is rarely found...!!!).Vincenza the hostess is very helpful and "generous". Lorenzo, the sommelier, illustrates with a persuasive voice the wine served by combining the history of the territory, expanding the quality of Service.Overall my personal rating is 8/10.The value for money is excellent...indeed they can ask for more...very quietly...good work
A wonderful experience, which should have lasted an hour and that, for the competence, the love for wine and the friendliness of Vincenza, lasted for 4 hours. Convivial and very cute atmosphere that makes friends even the nearby tables. We will be back with all friends. Highly recommended
Great experience to taste native wines, extra virgin olive oil of own production and excellence of the territory! Sommelier very prepared and helpful!
