Looking for a wine tour recommendation.
On the web, there are several companies offering all day wine tours from Florence, and I'm looking for recommendations. Ideally, we would like a small group (8 or less), visit a couple wineries, include lunch, and possibly includes a visit to 1 or 2 smaller hill towns. We will be in Florence for the last week of March.
Thank you in advance.

We used Tuscan Wine Society tour in September of 2012 and loved it! Pierre picked us up from out hotel in the morning; there were 8 of us. Traveled to first vineyard with wine and different varieties of pecorino cheese; then lunch at famous butcher with delicious food; then on to next vineyard with wine and chocolate; last off to visit Village of Greve. Wonderful full day with lots of knowledge and fun. Great reviews on Trip Advisor. Website is www.tuscanwinesociety.com.
Another recommendation for the same tour as above - did the Chianti tour - good tour guide, very knowledgeable and no stupid jokes or commentary.
Oops... I think the link provided above is a mistake???
This is the company I used and I think it's the same as the first poster referenced

In any event, I took the Chianti tour and thought it was good.
Same outift but more info
