I found this little gem as my wife and I were driving through the Tuscan countryside, and decided to turn in on a whim. It turned out to be a very cute winery with some amazing views of Tuscany. It's a small place but that only adds to the charm of its rose covered, stone walls. My wife and I each had a tasting, and the wines were delicious so we had to buy a bottle. Their everyday wine was so fresh and easy drinking, while the more mature wine was something I could have a glass or two with a steak and be a very happy man. The best part of our visit was Angela who works at the winery. She was incredibly sweet and fun. She gave us great recommendations of things in the area and was just such a friendly person that it really topped off the experience. We went to a few other wineries that day and this was the best so definitely visit if you get the chance. If I ever find myself driving through Tuscany again, I would be sure to stop in and grab another bottle or four.
P.S. Have fun on your own...

We were shown briefly around the vineyard and then tasted a selection of three wines. The sommelier explained the basics of the wines and the history of the winery itself. Informative and tasty!
We were a group of 30+ people which was difficult to manage in the small spaces so the tasting session was slightly chaotic. With a smaller group it would've...
