This show is a recap of a the recent trip through Tuscany that my travel partner, Tourissimo, and I organized for a group of 19 Patrons (join Patreon so you can make the next one!). We go through the major DOCGs/DOCs we visited and I share some interesting things I learned and observed. A great one for armchair travel!

Here are the DOCGs we explored:

• Vernaccia di San Gimignano
• Vino Nobile di Montepulciano
• Chianti Classico
• Brunello di Montalcino
• Morellino di Scansano

And the DOCs Maremma and Bolgheri

My big takeaway from the trip: I am more optimistic than ever about Tuscan wines, which just keep getting better and better. If you don\u2019t have experience with these wines, I would recommend checking them out (especially if you like Italian food since what grows together, goes together!).
