Educational Tour Extra Virgin Olive Oil and wine: tasting class dedicated to extra virgin olive oil with a visit to a farm.
Tasting class dedicated to extra virgin olive oil with a visit to a farm.
A practical and exciting class all dedicated to an excellence of the territory: Tuscan extra virgin olive oil (Terre di Siena DOP and Toscano IGP). An expert will follow you step by step through the knowledge of the olive oil tasting rudiments. You will be learning to discern and identify the qualities of the extra virgin olive oil, starting from organoleptic qualities such as color, fragrance and flavor. At the end of the class, which will be done at an olive oil mill during its opening period, or at a wine/olive oil shop, you will be able to identify a high-quality oil and mix winning matches on your table. After the introductive lesson you will test what you have just learnt by visiting a farm where extra virgin olive oils produced. The taste of a bruschetta topped with local extra virgin olive oil paired with a glass of wine will definitely get a different flavor after you will have discovered the production methods and the tasting secrets.
