My hubby and I have been travelling in Europe for the past 3 months and decided to come to Tuscany to experience what life is really like under the Tuscan sun for a month. Chance upon this beautiful boutique winery n vineyards at the foot of Mt Amiata and we are awed by the panoramic views surrounding the winery! Semona and Stephania, the owners were fantastic hosts and they were very friendly n hospitable to us. We had a really great time sampling their delicious wines n local foods lovingly prepared by Stephania. Their red wines r using 100% Sangiovese handpicked grapes that grow at the foot of a dormant volcano which makes their wine very special! This is one of the highlights of our long trip so far and we will definitely remember this wonderful experience for a very long time. Thank-u Semona and Stephania for showing us what true Italian hospitality is and you are very welcome to visit us in Singapore. Keep in...

We had an amazing personal testing with Simone. The meal and wine tasting experience wasn’t available the day we visited because they had another engagement. So, he agreed to do a tasting.

We purchased two bottles of wines, and the olive oil.
We are excited to return and do the Tuscan food and wine experience when we visit again in four months.
You MUST do this winery when in the area. Not huge, not touristy - just an amazing local and authentic experience.
My advice - Do not just show up. Call and make reservations, so you make the most of...
Read moreFantastic experience! Simone and Stefania welcome you into their home and serve their 3 wines each paired with their own food course, lovingly prepared by Stefania. More like lunch with additional wine tasting. And all with a fantastic view of Monte Amiata. Simone is passionate and engaging about his award winning wines, and their story of how they got here. The food prepared by Stefania is wonderful and each course was more than we expected. You MUST do this winery if you are in the area. It's not all about the big Montalcino wineries and brands in the valley next door. Book yourself into this small family winery for an amazing local and authentic experience. More than just your typical 'touristy'...
