We did our tasting outside looking over the vineyards and country side. They offer 6 wines and you can choose to taste 4 or all 6. We chose 6 and they were all good. The woman working brought 1-2 wines at a time over to our table at a time, told us about the wines, and then left us to enjoy it. Our group's favorite was the Merlot. They also offered bread with their own olive oil, and some delicious crostini. Once we were done with our tasting, we were also offered a tour of their cellar where we learned about their winemaking process. I'd highly recommend a visit if you are in the area- it was about a 20 minute taxi from Lucca

This experience was the highlight of our group tour to San Gimignano from Livorno. It was part of a…read moreNCL tour that included a visit to the medieval village, but with emphasis on the wine of the region. We were taken to this lovely estate, while dodging roosters and chickens as our bus entered through the main gate. It's such a picturesque setting for a wine tasting. I can see that many events are celebrated in these vineyards all year round. The beautiful rose bushes along the trail leading to the wine tasting room added even more charm. Gabrielle was our guide for this tour. He gave us a great presentation of all that Tenuta Torciano has to offer. It all started with the appetizer plate that went perfectly with their amazing Vernaccia wine. It is such a beautiful golden color with a bright and crisp fruity taste. The grape is only grown in this region. It's a must try when in San Gimignano. I was also very much in love with the Rosato IGT Toscana wine that is very deep pink in color. It looks so pretty in the bottle. It was my second favorite of the 9 or 10 different wines that we tasted. It was an extremely generous amount for the cost. I even purchased a couple of reds, which I'm not usually fond of because they give me headaches. These did not have that affect on me. The Super Tuscan red wines called Bartolomeo & Baldassarre totally won me over. In all honesty, I've never spent this much on wine in my entire life. It was worth it. They ship it straight to your home. They have a stateside warehouse in Chicago which makes it so convenient. The package arrived a couple of days after we returned from our trip. It was exactly what we ordered, and packed with such wonderful care. Great service! We also were given the opportunity to try their flavored olive oils and balsamic vinegar. The truffle oil was drizzled over the lasagna for the tasting, but it was the balsamic vinegar that was a big hit with my husband. We've been getting a lot of use out of it when making bruschetta and caprese salad at home. It's delicious! The sweet ending to our tasting was the Vin Beato dessert wine. We dipped the cantucci (or biscotti cookies) into the wine. It was the perfect ending to a lovely wine tasting experience. I really wasn't expecting a full meal, nor was I expecting so many different wine samplings. It exceeded our expectations. I believe they have a number of different experiences here like truffle hunting and horseback riding. Just check out their website. I would have never known about this place had I not booked a tour through the cruise line. It was a memorable visit with an excellent wine tasting. I'd do it again if ever in San Gimignano.

We didn't have reservations, so we just drove up. Thanks to a Google review tip, we weren't deterred by the closed gate and called the tasting room through the gate box. They answered and happily let us in. The drive through the vineyards was lovely, and when we reached the tasting room, we found the view from the covered patio to be exquisite. The man helping us was so incredibly kind. He gave us the history of the Swedish family that owns it and explained that much of the beautiful tasting room is brand new. We got to sample their wines on the patio while enjoying the view; and he was so generous to provide us with local cheeses, crackers, and bread to enjoy with our wine. We feasted like kings. We took several bottles with us and how I wish this place was local to me as if I would be returning on a regular basis.
