This place is beautiful! I brought a group of over 20 people and everybody loved the wine. We…read moremade our reservation weeks in advance and made a special request for some lite food. Were were told it would not be a problem (because it was weeks in advance) and were quoted a price of 25 Euros per person. As we arrived at the tasting a new email was received informing us that it would be an additional 15 per person for the food. We didn't have much of a choice, we had just traveled two hours and I had well over 20 people sitting on a bus in their parking lot. The food ended up being pathetic and way over priced. They did end up lowering the price of the food, but it was still to high and not what we were quoted. Not that I expect/deserve/earned it, but of the 12 wine tastings I have taken large groups to, this is the only one that has not given me (the host) complementary bottles as a thank you. Again, it is not something that I paid for, but after my group bought 10? cases of wine in addition to the 1000 euros for the tasting.....it would have been a nice gesture. Tenuta Torciano ended up being a better option. It was acheaper experience, with lots of real food, wonderful interactions with the wine steward, and great wines!

Despite showing up without a reservation (with two young children reservations are difficult), we…read morewere given a proper tour and tasting. The tour was one-on-one and very informative. The property is exceptional, though due to attention to signage as it can be somewhat tricky to locate. After the tour we were offered tastings of a number of Brunello vintages, Rosso, Grappa and the exceptional olive oil pressed on the premises. We enjoyed the wine so much we had a case shipped home. I would like to note that the Brunello prices were on the lower end of what we found in Montalcino, similarly the shipping rate was the lowest we were offered during our two week stay in the region. We highly recommend a visit.
