Description

Discover the world of Tuscan wine through a fun and engaging tasting experience right in the heart of Florence. During this one-hour activity, you will taste two excellent Italian wines, served in elegant 100 ml bottles that keep aromas and flavours perfectly intact thanks to advanced preservation technology. Your experience begins with a short guided introduction, where our team will give you simple tips on how to analyze a wine using sight, smell and taste—without complicated terminology. You’ll learn how to recognize colours, aromas, structure and balance in the glass, and how to use the tasting kit provided. After the introduction, you will continue your independent tasting, exploring the wines at your own pace. Taste iconic varieties such as Chianti and Vermentino, carefully selected by our winemaker Francesca Vigo from some of the most representative Tuscan producers. The experience is designed to be interactive and social. You can compare impressions, challenge your friends to guess the aromas, and enjoy learning by doing. It’s the perfect mix of light theory and practical discovery, suitable both for beginners and for those who simply love good wine. The tasting takes place just steps from the Ponte Vecchio, with a beautiful view of one of the most iconic spots in the world. Our First Glass store offers an intimate, relaxed atmosphere where you can sit around a shared table, meet fellow wine lovers, and enjoy a moment of true Florentine charm. Light snacks—including olives, taralli and peanuts—are served to accompany the wines, along with still or sparkling water. If you’d like to continue your exploration, you can order additional wines after the tasting, including exclusive labels available through our historic wine window. Join us for a unique sensory journey that celebrates Tuscan flavours, local culture and the pleasure of discovering wine in a simple, enjoyable way.
