Our cheese and wine tasting was outstanding. The others who scheduled did not show, so we ended up with a private tasting and the sommelier was great. She was very knowledgeable and very kind in her approach. It was a great way to be introduced to the region and the city of Florence, and was very helpful to us for our tour of Tuscany the following day. We highly recommend this tasting.
