Tuscan Cooking Class and Organic Wine Tasting in Front of San Gimignano Towers

What to Expect

Guests will learn the secrets for the preparation of antipasti with bruschetta, a first traditional dish with homemade pasta and a tasty dessert. The recipes are authentic Morrocchi - Dei family, handed down from grandparents and re-proposed here successfully at Sosta Alle Colonne.

At the end of the morning/afternoon in the kitchen, a moment of relaxed conviviality during lunch/dinner together in the warm atmosphere of our rooms.

The menu includes dishes that were prepared during the course as well as a second plate with cold cuts and cheese, accompanied by a tasting of 3 or more types of extra virgin olive natural and flavored oils and 4/5 business organic wines, including the wines of the best known area, such as Vernaccia di San Gimignano and Chianti Colli Senesi.

Vegetarian option is available on request.
