Visita fantastica e vini eccellenti

Rate: 5 out of 5 7/1/24
Abbiamo vissuto un' esperienza bellissima: il padrone di casa ci ha condotto in una visita del piccolo borgo medievale con gentilezza e competenza e ci ha illustrato la cantina e il processo di lavorazione del suo vino, totalmente naturale, con passione e professionalità. In degustazione un fantastico Chardonnay, un chianti e un Merlot, tutti e tre davvero buoni, in abbinata a un tagliere dai prodotti d'eccellenza. Consigliatissimo per chi vuole scoprire un mondo dove ancora si mette il cuore
Tutto perfetto

Great experience!

We had a great time at Castel Pietraio. When we arrived we started with a guided tour of the winery. Our guide, Catarina was very knowledgeable and passionate about their product!

We then tasted three wines on the veranda. It was well-paced. We didn't feel rushed or delayed.
The only thing I might suggest is to offer some nibbles to pair with the wine. They did offer potato chips, but could amp that up a bit.
