While they did move the time of our wine tasting up an hour at the last minute, they did make arrangements for transportation for us and we had a wonderful time.

Beautiful location for wine tasting and lunch.

A wine tasting and lunch in the most amazing location with beautiful views. Within walking distance of San Gimignano. All the wines and foods explained to us. You can have a wander to see the vines but this experience does not involve an explanation of the process of producing wine or a look at where the wine is produced. However would still highly recommend it. It’s a very romantic and stunning location for lunch. All staff very friendly and helpful.

Best day in Tuscany

Our driver from a previous days' excursion suggested we have lunch and do a wine tasting at this winery and we are so glad we did! the views were outstanding, as was the food and wine. We sat through lunch for over 2 hours and enjoyed every minute. They were also able to accommodate my husbands need for gluten free food. Everything was delicious!

Very interesting experience close to San Gimignano

Dinner in the garden with great views of San Gimignano. Meal with delicious local dishes, accompanied by wines (3) from the house. 6 olive oils and 1 balsamic vinegar at our disposal to taste. We were served by David who knew how to explain the wines and answer our questions. Excellent discovery at a very affordable price (45Euro/person)

Highly recommended

Beautiful experience that we enjoyed with all tranquility in the beautiful garden, under a refreshing mist. The simple and genuine food was paired with high quality biodynamic wines, oils and balsamic. The very kind and professional staff welcomed us and guided us on a visit to the vineyard and the small cellar flooded us with its scents and its experience. Only regret the scorching sun that did not allow us a long stay in the vineyard. We also took pictures because the landscape was unmissable. We will not miss the opportunity to return.

Operator response

Grazie mille, purtroppo il caldo torrido di questa estate non permetteva di stare troppo tempo al sole ma fortunatamente c'è in modo di rinfrescarsi!! Speriamo di riavervi presto qui con noi Marronaia Family
