Situated at the Paletti de Varano de'Melegari Autodromo near Parma, Italy, the renowned Maserati Master GT Driving Course offers a training on a circuit that brings out the best of drivers' abilities. Instruction consists of 24 participants split into groups of six-eight people each. Under the direction of Ivan Capelli, former F1 driver, and a staff of ten, drivers test five Maserati GranTurismo, two Maserati Quattroporte Sport GTS, six Maserati GranSport, and four Maserati Trofeo - all on a motor racing circuit equipped for dynamic exercises, centralized artificial rain, low grip resins, sliding machines, and more.
The Tenuta di Arceno estate lies in the hills of the Chianti region in central Tuscany between Florence and Siena, an area that is home to Italy's renowned Super Tuscans, including the Tenuta di Arceno estate's Arcanum I and Arcanum II. And the philosophy that directs all of the estate's winemaking? Pierre Seillan, Vigneron and Winemaster, offers up a simple concept: "You just need to listen to the earth's message. Everything you need to know is right there in the soil and the vines."
