We also have a well-stocked wine cellar for our guests year round, to enjoy the areas viticultural treasures.

Upon request and depending on the season, we can also organize trips to Siena during the famous Palio horse race, to San Miniato to hunt for truffles, to nearby farms to enjoy the newly pressed olive oil and local cheeses and to the most prestigious wineries for a memorable wine tasting outing. Just let us know when making your reservation if you are interested in these types of services and we will let you know what is offered during the season you'll be visiting us.
