Reviews
The perfect place for a large group tasting. We thoroughly enjoyed 9+ different wines, and a surprisingly stout food menu of meats, cheeses, breads, soup, lasagna, truffle oil, and balsamic vinegar. Lead by the expert guide of Gabriele, our 60+ wedding party had the most incredible tour. The vineyard excels in quality both on site as well as shipping internationally, some of the more rare wines of the Chianti region
This was a lovely property with friendly staff however this was not our best wine tasting experience… we have been in Tuscany for about 8 days and have visited several wineries in the Chianti region, all have been wonderful and the wine has been too notch! I will say, the wine produced out of this winery was very good, and the food pairing was nice. The issue we had with our experience was that if really felt like a factory, just funnelling guests in and out, and there wasn’t a ton of connection with the folks running or supporting the wine tasting. We got seated and created by 2 different people, had 2 glasses poured right away with no instruction or explanation by a 3rd person and then finally the “main wine expert” came over to us (after about 10 minutes of us just sitting and waiting with no direction) and he gave a very quick rundown of 6 different wines what were sitting in front of us then disappeared until we finished our last glass. It would have been a more enjoyable experience if we had been grouped together with a few others so that we could enjoy the wine together rather then just sitting with little direction. Thankfully we are very familiar with the wine tasting process and we’re able to make the most of it but I think there would be benefit to making the basic tastings more fun and sociable especially when your tasting so many wines! This didn’t feel like an authentic experience to us but the quality of wine was very nice.
We arrived without a booking for wine tasting but were accommodated for and offered various packages.
We chose wine tasting with light lunch at 55e each and 15e for kids.
Melanie who did the wine tasting for us was super friendly and knowledgeable! We had a great afternoon.
Great tasting wine and generous pours, yummy food and again amazing service.
Highly recommend!
Had a fantastic experience! Would highly recommend. We bought tickets for the transportation from Florence and tasting. The only thing I would advise is if you are booking through Get Your Guide make sure you confirm the pickup time for the transportation with Tenuta. Get Your Guide will provide communications to arrive 10 minutes before the start time to be picked up but the transportation actually arrives 1 hour before to be picked up. At first it seemed like Tenuta wasn’t going to be able to accommodate but they called us back with availability to pick us up a few hours later. Very much appreciated!
This was the most amazing experience. We stayed at the hotel signed up for the wine tour and lunch. The next day we did the cooking class, and ate what we made. Then finally dinner in the cave.
Dante was awesome with the wine class. The staff is just awesome. We ate A LOT of food and DRANK A LOT of wine in the 2 days that we signed up for those events.
Highly recommend this, and would definitely come back and do it again.
Visited the winery last month. Purchased a bottle of the truffle oil, which was delicious. We were told we could carry the oil on the plane. We were even given a special cardboard wine carrier.
The oil was confiscated by airport security. I reached out to winery. I offered to buy 1 bottle and perhaps get second free. The best they would do is offer 5% off. Very disappointed.
We were here for wine tasting and dinner that has been served beetween the grape vines. We tested 9 types of wine, all very good, we couldn't resist buying some. The food was very good and a lot...the lasagna prepared according to an old family recipe was delicious. The staff were delightful and professional. We thank all the staff for this extraordinary experience, especially Mr. Arfonso and Mr. Gabriele. Thank you guys! Salute!
We had a great experience at the winery, i was told all orders and prices were inclusive of all taxes. I ordered quite a few bottles of wine from this vineyard. I was told they would email me with shipping details. 3 weeks post order still no email- I phoned them chase up the order but was told to email them my order confirmation- surely for such a large company they would have this stored on their system?! Nonetheless I emailed them. Fortunately the next day the wine arrive but I was told I needed to pay £85 in tax!!!! I was shocked! I called the vineyard- again they said I had to re-email them the confirmation as they didn't receive my email. After putting me on hold for 10 mins she finally found my order and said the order does not include tax.
NB- when ordering from this company PLEASE BE AWARE YOU WILL HAVE TO PAY TAX DESPITE WHAT THEY TELL YOU!
POOR SERVICE AND COMMUNICATION, I won't be ordering from here again.
