There is a good intro to Florence, with a list of must sees, right here on the Rick Steves website:

Hello clcasinelli07, and welcome to the forum!
Keep in mind that 2 nights is really only 1 full days and some amount of 2 partial days. If you do a winery tour and a cooking class this will probably occupy your full open day leaving little time for any "must see" activities. Only you can determine what is a "must see" but Florence has enough potential "must see" sights to fill many days for most people.
A short, partial list is Michelangelo's David in the Academia, Uffizi Gallery with countless masterpieces, the Duomo and Duomo Museum along with climbing either Giotto's tower or Brunelleschi's dome itself. You don't mention when you are visiting but pre-buying timed tickets for these attractions is practically required in Summer and Fall and can save you time in line even in off months.
Florence is amazing, have a great visit,
