In the Maremma, wine tasting with a bilingual guide is an immersion into a territory shaped by the sea, the hills and an ancient mining history. It's not just a tasting, it's a discovery of the terroir's influence on wines such as Vermentino Superiore, nicknamed the "Maremmano", or wines with mineral notes from volcanic soils. You will come across estates such as Tenuta Casteani, a few kilometres from Grosseto, or Poggio al Rigoloccio in Gavorrano, where the guide will explain how geological history shapes the character of the wines.
These experiences, often offered on organic farms like La Maliosa near Saturnia, include discovering the winemaking processes, sometimes up to ageing in barrels or amphorae. Expect food and wine pairings showcasing local products: Tuscan cold cuts, Pecorino cheeses, and extra virgin olive oil. Some visits, such as those near the Uccellina nature park, offer magnificent landscapes, accessible in 35 minutes from Porto Santo Stefano.
