2 weeks in North/Central Italy looking for good food, wine, culture, etc.

Folks,

Here is our preliminary plan, pending you expert advice :) Two 60ish couples fly to Milan, work our way by car Southwest towards Asti for about three nights, then towards Bologna for about three nights and then rent a villa or such in Tuscany for about a week (visit Florence) and fly back home (to NY) from Pisa. We hope to see the local culture, enjoy the cuisine and wine, and relax a bit. Regrettably we must do it in late July, early August

Thinking of some day cuisine oriented tours, especially for the first half and then enjoy the charms of Tuscany.

Feedback, suggestions and any other thoughts all much appreciated.

Thanks in advance.
