Description
Embark on an unforgettable hour-long truffle hunt through the estate's private woodland. Afterwards, roll up your sleeves and participate in a hands-on fresh pasta-making class. Finally, savor a delightful lunch featuring your truffle-hunting bounty, all enjoyed on a sun-drenched terrace overlooking a picturesque olive grove.
Embark on an unforgettable truffle hunt nestled in the heart of Chianti Classico, a short drive from Greve in Chianti and just 20 minutes from Florence. This exclusive experience is a must for any visitor to the region!
Your adventure begins in the late morning (10:30 am in spring, slightly earlier in summer to beat the heat). Accompanied by a skilled truffle hunter and their exceptional Lagotto Romagnolo—a breed renowned for its truffle-sniffing prowess—you'll venture into the estate's enchanting woodlands. For about an hour, you'll be immersed in nature, actively participating in the search for this prized delicacy, known as "black gold," and uncovering the secrets of this centuries-old Tuscan tradition.
Following your hunt, you'll return to the farmhouse and learn the art of making fresh pasta (tagliatelle). This delicious pasta will then be the star of your lunch.
Enjoy a relaxing midday meal on the stunning terrace, overlooking the vineyards and olive grove. Savor a delectable, homemade lunch featuring the truffles you unearthed, a truly rewarding culmination of your morning's adventure.
