Wine Classes / Tastings at casa leana
I’m Claudia, I am a professional Sommelier and I have been working in the wine business for many years. I am also deeply in love with my beloved region of Tuscany where I find beauty all around me, in history, art, lifestyle and, of course, in a good glass of wine!
Sitting outside overlooking the countryside while sipping wine, is already a satisfying experience but what’s behind that glass of wine?
Wine tasting is an art, a ritual, for many a delightful pastime, but above all it’s a journey that involves multiple senses.
If you are new to wine or looking to deepen your knowledge, we will learn together the basics of wine tasting, while exploring together how sight, smell and taste contribute to the experience.
The wine class includes:
- A lesson about the fundamental steps of wine wasting
- Tasting of 3 different wines
- A final quiz to check our learning
Duration: Around 1 hour and a half
