The charming region of Tuscany, renowned for its delicious food and fine wines, will be the setting of this 4-day Tuscan cooking and culture holiday. Tucked away on a wonderfully authentic Italian farm, nestled in the surrounding hills and valleys just 6km from the historic city of Arezzo, you’ll be able to unwind and relax as you drink in the slower Italian lifestyle.
In a rural, relaxed atmosphere you’ll learn timeless recipes, create your own beautiful pastas and local specialties, and sample organic extra virgin olive oil produced right there on the farm. You’ll also enjoy tasting wonderful local wines, including Chianti and Vino Santo dessert wine, all local to the region.
You will be perfecting Tuscan specialities including fresh pastas, accompanying seasonal sauces, traditional cookies with local almonds and chestnut honey, panna cotta and so much more by learning the local secrets and techniques that make Italian cuisine so special.
As well as experiencing all things food and wine, you’ll also get to visit local towns with a rich history and an addictively slow lifestyle in Arezzo and Cortona, where you’ll visit wineries, local food markets, and truly immerse yourself in Italian culture.
During this memorable Italian cooking and culture holiday, your host and Chef Fabrizio will be on hand to ensure every element of your holiday runs smoothly, to ensure you return feeling relaxed and satisfied with mouth-watering Italian cooking, as well as a great collection of new recipes and techniques to replicate for friends and family.
