6 ENGAGING WINE EXPERIENCES SUITABLE FOR PROFESSIONALS, WINE CURIOSITIES AND ENTHUSIASTS IN THE ENCHANTMENT OF THE HISTORIC CENTRE OF MONTEPULCIANO.
In the heart of the rolling Tuscan hills, where the landscape unfolds between rows of vines, solitary cypresses and ancient stone farmhouses, stands Talosa , a winery that embodies the history, beauty and passion of Montepulciano. Here, the union between nature and tradition gives life to authentic experiences, designed for those who wish to immerse themselves in the purest essence of Vino Nobile di Montepulciano.
Talosa has always placed hospitality at the center of its philosophy , enhancing the territory and creating wine tourism itineraries in harmony with the wonderful context that surrounds it. A commitment that led to the inauguration of the Cantina Storica, after meticulous renovation work carried out in collaboration with the Fine Arts. In this evocative underground space, among oak barrels and centuries-old brick vaults, the wine rests and matures, guarding the soul of Montepulciano. The tasting room created from a former storage area, transformed into a welcoming and refined environment, is ideal for an immersive sensory experience. Even more unique is the underground tasting room, located 15 meters below ground level and reachable via a staircase that starts directly from the Cantina Storica. Once an air raid shelter , today it is an evocative space dug into the rock , perfect for experiencing exciting and engaging wine experiences .
