Cooking Courses in Tuscany
We organise cooking courses here at the Campastrello Sport! Our chefs will take you through an amazing journey of how to make the best Tuscan Dishes using only the freshest and most local of ingredients. You will be taken to visit local farms both organic and traditional, vineyards which have existed for over 80 years and of course we can organise to take you truffle hunting through the spectacular Tuscan countryside!
The courses can be organised on an individual or group basis and can last 1,2 or 3 days... Learn to cook the mediterranean way, get healthier, live longer so you can go on more holidays! We guarantee you that after a few days in the Tuscan sunshine and eating only the finest foods that you will reap the rewards! The courses involve preparing the ingredients... you can even accompany the chef to the local Tuscan markets as he haggles with the market vendors in their own local dialect trying to get the best prices... meat and fish dishes are meticulously prepared and then of course, the proof of the pudding is always in the eating... so that very same day whether it is lunchtime or dinnertime you can you can sit down and enjoy your meal! all washed down by a lovely glass of Tuscan Wine but now that's a whole new kettle of fish...
Wine Tasting in Tuscany
Wine tours in Tuscany are not a new thing but here at the Campastrello we try to offer something a little more unique... excursions to local "vineria's" or vineyards are organised via the concierge and transport to and from the Vinyard is provided... half and full day excursions may be booked and please inform yourself at reception whether indeed the Campastrello are hosting any forthcoming Tuscan Wine Evenings here in the hotel. These evenings are periodically arranged from time to time and are always a rip roaring success!
So where do you go for your Tuscan Wine tour? Well naturally we must mention the Chianti region, the popularity and notoriety of which has now reached such a level particularly with English wine drinkers that many guide now refer to "Tuscanshire" when describing Tuscany. The picture postcard town of San Gimingnano with it's medieval sky scrapers and wine-cellars make for an informative and cultural wine tasting tour. Wines that you will no doubt have heard of include Chianti DOCG, Chianti Classico, Vernaccia, Brunello di Montaclcino and from the north of Tuscany Montepulciano, Montalcino and Pienza.
