After a thrilling morning hunting truffles, the guests of the food and wine tour get to enter the magical kitchen of Gabriella Bianconi. She lets us smell each type of truffle (there are many different types for different uses!) as she gently incorporates them into a myriad of tasting dishes. Once we understand the general characteristics of each truffle, we sit down for a full meal where we delight in simple yet rich dishes. It’s truffle season: feast your eyes.
