We had such an amazing time at the Brunello cooking class with Chef Alexandra — it was a perfect honeymoon activity. Everything was incredibly well organized from pickup to drop-off, which made the day feel completely seamless and stress-free. The experience fun and indulgent with local recipes and ingredients, but I also learned genuinely practical cooking skills that I’ll take home and use. I really appreciated how we got to do the fun parts of cooking (like making the pasta and tiramisu) and Chef Alexandra was working behind the scenes, with all the prep work completed before we even arrived, and she did the cooking and plating — so it was a nice mix of cooking and relaxing to enjoy the wine. The meal was an absolute feast — 5 courses! We started with two kinds of bruschetta, then had two pastas (one spinach/herb ravioli with a sage and butter sauce, and another pasta with aglione and tomato sauce), then stewed meat and zucchini, and tiramisu for dessert. Alexandra is a knowledgeable chef and an incredibly warm, welcoming host, which made the experience feel both educational and personal. The wine was delicious, the setting was beautiful, and we truly loved every part of it. Highly recommend to anyone looking for an authentic, memorable experience in the region.

My husband and I booked this class during our honeymoon and it was the most amazing experience of the whole trip!! They first gave us a guided tour and we had no idea about the rich history that took place at this winery. It was fascinating. Then we had our cooking class with chef Gaia who was absolutely amazing! She was patient with us and very knowledgeable, polite, and outgoing. This was the best meal we had all trip!! Also the views were out of this world!

Everything was just wonderful; the planning, organization, communication and the activities themselves. The truffle hunt was wonderful, interesting and with a true local. And the cooking class was a ton of fun for me and the kids, held in a gorgeous cottage in the middle of nature. Highly recommended company and itinerary.

This was a 5 star experience from the moment we arrived at the class. As soon as we walked in we were greeted by the chef and poured a glass of prosecco. We cooked 2 pastas, tiramisu, and some apps. During diner we got to taste 3 different wines. The food was phenomenal but the experience was made by chef Alexandria. She was informative, friendly, and really made the experience for us. Would recommend this class for anyone!

This was the highlight of our trip. The venue, the instructors (Gaia is amazing), and the food were all fantastic. They accommodated dietary restrictions too.

Amazing experience in the most beautiful setting possible. Our teacher Gaia was so nice, friendly, and guided us in making some amazing dishes that we will recreate at home.

What a fun cooking class! Our instructor was Gaia and what a fun time! We made tagliatelle with sausage ragu, ravioli stuffed with pumpkin/potato in butter sage, and then finally tiramisu. We all had so much fun and Gaia gave us tips for when we get home and are making these dishes. We enjoyed eating our meal paired with Castello Tricerchi wines overlooking the winery vineyards. The pasta was so tender and honestly easier to make than you would think! The class from start to finish was great and I would highly recommend it to anyone in the Montalcino area!
