Siena: Sensory Wine Workshop, a Unique Blindfolded Experience

Immerse yourself in a unique sensory journey through Tuscan wines, but with your eyes closed! You will discover the flavors and aromas of the best local wines through touch, smell and taste.

The Blindfolded Wine Lesson is a unique and immersive experience designed for those who want to discover Tuscan wine in an original and fun way. The event begins in an intimate and elegant room, where a solid wood table is set up, surrounded by precious bottles, some of which are even impossible to find. You will meet your dedicated sommelier, who will introduce you to the wines of the region and the secrets of wine tasting. The highlight comes when, once blindfolded, you will be guided on a sensory journey that will stimulate all your senses except sight. The sommelier will have you taste 4 different wines, DOCG excellences from Tuscany: Chianti Classico, Nobile di Montepulciano, Brunello di Montalcino, and Supertuscan. Without the help of your sight, you will have to concentrate on the aromas, flavors, and textures to try to guess the type, vintage, and characteristics of each wine. With each tasting, you will learn interesting facts and stories about the wine you are tasting, learning to distinguish the different Tuscan grape varieties and their particular characteristics. The wines will be accompanied by a selection of Tuscan pecorino cheeses and grissini breadsticks. The experience ends with the revelation of the wines tasted, and at the end, you can buy them or choose and buy from the large selection we have in the wine shop. This blindfolded lesson is designed to be a moment of discovery, laughter, and sharing, perfect for couples, friends, or for those who want to immerse themselves in the world of Tuscan wine in an original and interactive way. A fun and engaging experience that will let you experience Tuscan wine in a completely new way!
