Experience The Authentic Flavors Of Tuscany
Bolgheri - Castagneto Carducci
Ciao, I’m Chicca. I have been teaching Italian cooking classes for over 20 years in our farmhouse located on The Wine Road that leads to Bolgheri, known for some of the finest wines in the world. I have cooked and shared authentic Italian recipes passed down in my family for generations with guests from all over the world. I believe in home cooking, in the power of fresh and good ingredients.

Chicca’s Cooking Club has been a delightful experience. The recipes Chicca guides us through via Zoom from her Tuscan farmhouse are simple and easy to prepare! I would never have attempted to make gnocchi without her guidance. Now I feel confident to make it for my family. Another benefit of the class is the many “tips and tricks” of food prep and kitchen setup that Chicca shares with us. An afternoon spent cooking with Chicca always leads to a great day ~ and an outstanding meal!

My husband and I had a superb day in Bolgheri with Chicca! She is a wonderful tour guide with great knowledge of the local history and all the places to stop in town, in addition to being a friendly, outgoing person. She keeps the conversation flowing and is very easy to talk to!
The pace of the tour is just right and spread out nicely between wine and coffee tastings, gelato, and a delicious lunch (the wild boar ragu is one of my favorite meals we've had!). Bolgheri is a darling town with good shops, ranging from a clay sculptor to locally made perfume and you will get to experience it fully on this tour!

An unforgettable cooking adventure for the whole family in a lovely Tuscan villa. Chicca is a wonderful host who teaches everyone recipes handed down through the generations from her grandmother. We went for the local delights class where we learned authentic Italian recipes like fresh gnocchi, ravioli with spinach and ricotta, amazing meatballs, and an indulgent chocolate cake. We went with our local italian friends who had little children under 5 years old. Everyone was thoroughly entertained and impressed with the beautiful food and company. Amazing and a must-do in Tuscany.
