Full description
The Island of Elba has a wild side that rarely features on postcards: the best way to discover it is to hop on an e-bike!
On this two-and-a-half-hour guided tour, you’ll cycle through the Tenuta delle Ripalte estate in Capoliveri, amongst cliffs plunging into the sea, ancient pine forests, natural lakes and some of the island’s highest vineyards.
The ultimate reward? A panoramic aperitif with a tasting of three glasses of wine and traditional Tuscan delicacies on the roof of a designer winery!
What we will do
We’ll meet at the time indicated at the meeting point in Capoliveri (LI). The guide who will be accompanying us on our excursion will be waiting for us there.
Once we’re mounted on our Cannondale e-bikes with Bosch motors, we’ll set off on a tour of the 450 hectares of the Tenuta delle Ripalte, within the Tuscan Archipelago National Park. Along the way, we’ll cycle through the vineyards and enjoy spectacular sea views, whilst listening to the guide recount the history and legends of the ancient estate, as well as learning about the characteristics of the soil, the biological stages of the vine and viticulture techniques.
Along the route, we’ll make several stops at scenic spots to take some souvenir photos! This first part of the e-bike tour will last around 1 hour.
Next, we’ll enjoy a tasting of three wines from the island: a Brut Rosé Sparkling Wine made from Aleatico grapes, a Vermentino white wine and an Alicante red wine. To accompany the wines, there’ll be a generous selection of typical Tuscan specialities: cured meats from free-range livestock, pecorino cheeses of various types and ages, fresh Tuscan schiaccia, artisan honey from the estate and 100% Italian extra virgin olive oil from the Island of Elba.
The event will last a total of 2. 5 hours.
