This experience is fun, scenic, tasty and an overall MUST DO! I contacted Fabrizio about a week before meeting up with my mother & sister in Arezzo to celebrate my mother's retirement. He responded almost immediately (even with the 9-hour time difference) with an easy-to-follow booking process and AMAZING menu options. The place was easy to find (we called a cab - about 30 EUR from the historic center of Arezzo), and absolutely gorgeous - overlooking the hills of Tuscany. We had so much fun cooking with him, talking about his travels, tasting his father's organic wine and of course, the food we cooked. I look forward to him starting his own ristorante in the near future, and fully intend to look him up next time I'm in lovely Toscana. I can't recommend this course enough!

Me and three friends did TerraPura's Winetastic tour and it was incredible! Chris and Mirko took us to two distinctly diverse and unique wineries- one of the oldest Wineries run by a woman and her 2 daughters and the other set in a castle atop one of the most breathtaking views I think I have ever seen. Chris and Mirko were welcoming and very knowledgeable about the cities of Montalcino and Montepulciano- they even took us up to the top of Montalcino city hall for yet another breath taking view! Without a doubt one of my favorite days in Italy.

This ancient winery is full of delicious details. We were received by the owner of this amazing property, who guided us for the last 500 years of history of the house, winery, vineyards and curiosities. After that we tasted some of the wines they produce there, helped by the sweet Francisca. It worth the visit - and it has in considerations all the safety rules regarding Covid-19 :)
