This morning we had a very interesting tour from Francesca where we were shown the villa and the wine cellar. Francesca has a lot of knowledge about the history of the estate and (making) wine. After the tour we concluded with a tasting where we could taste delicious wines. A very interesting and fun experience where Francesca really took the time and we were able to ask our questions. We will enjoy the bottles of wine we brought with us at home!

Great wines for well-educated palates and noses. A big thumbs up to Francesca for her availability and knowledge of oenology.

Beautiful place with incredible landscapes, from the entrance where the tree path leads you to a house on a hill. It is the second time I have visited it and it is always clean and well maintained. The wines you taste and sell at this property are excellent, as is the staff. All the landscapes are a postcard.

Starting from the entrance avenue where you can take beautiful walks completely immersed in the greenery, you arrive at the foot of the manor house which is immense... inside the estate you can visit the famous Italian garden all surrounded by wines of high quality, with unique aromas and flavors of Tuscany... I recommend everyone a visit to the cellars because in addition to tasting the wine you will be accompanied by highly trained and friendly staff who will explain the process in detail to the smallest details to the creation of these majestic wines
