- Via D’Arezzo, 162 - We will find ourselves inside the Podere degli Olmi, where you will receive a first greeting and fundamental information on the era of the Podere, on the Valdichiana reclamation, and above all on the fascinating history of the Podere. We will visit the entire main house and the ancient stables, and you will be told how life was in ancient times in the places of interest to us. We will stop in the Secret Garden, where together we will have a tasting of local products and wines, which will vary from time to time depending on the season. If the temperature allows it, we will stay outside, otherwise we will do the tasting inside in one of the magnificent rooms of the location. It will be an unforgettable experience, which will drag you directly into the rural history of Valdichiana, making you discover anecdotes, proverbs, songs and poems of rural life. You will be accompanied by the noble descendant of the family that has always owned the Leopoldina, and who will also tell you, only if you wish, the history of her family.
