We are the first to incorporate the total process of cooking! Have you ever been in a vineyard? Have you ever seen an olive grove? ... and do you know how to use olive oil and Chianti wine in daily meals? Come and join us!! As wine and oil producers, we offer you the opportunity to discover all this through an authentic Italian cooking course, all in English, in a magnificent Tuscan villa in the C
hianti region. Learn how to enhance delicious recipies with olive oil and chianti wine. Enjoy cooking the simplest and tasty dishes of the tuscan tradition using fresh and local ingredients. Make your own bruschetta fettunta, crostini, panzanella, zuppa lombarda or pappa al pomodoro... and rolling tagliatelle, ravioli, and much more. The Villa where you’ll be hosted is on an estate which has 340 acres of vineyards and olive groves. For five generations it has belonged to us: the Cascino family. Come and live for one week, combining a holiday with a cooking school, learning and relaxing by the pool in our luxurious grounds. The hands-on experience in the kitchen is enriched by guided art tours in Florence and Siena and by the discovery of the surroundings such as S.Gimignano, Volterra, Lucca or Pisa. Now grab your Tuscan apron, go wash your hands, and let’s get started!
