In the heart of the Chianti region near Siena, seated on the beautiful panoramic terrace or inside the lounge before the fireplace, our Hotel restaurant offers guests the typical "Chiantigiana" Tuscan cuisine. Aromatic herbs growing naturally in this region allow our Chef to recreate old country recipes with a delicate harmony of flavours; historic dishes, dressed with the extravergin olive oil which we are so proud of, are accompanied by our superb Chianti Classico and Chianti Classico Riserva wines.
Cooking Class
We offer a very interesting idea for anyone who wishes to learn the secrets of the Tuscan Cuisine and in particular "the real chiantigiana cooking" . The courses are held by our Chef who will demonstrate the recipes, with the partecipants actively taking part. During the lesson the partecipants will enjoy the dishes they have prepared themselves accompanied by VESCINE WINES.
