Get inspired during a tour of the iconic Martelli factory, a family business where they’ve been making four different shapes of pasta since 1920. Then, in the kitchen of their rustic Tuscan estate, learn how to make their signature pasta and traditional cantuccini biscuits from scratch before enjoying a three-course dinner paired with five wines produced from the Tuscan hills.
