Tasting and lunch experience in a wonderful place - I went with friends on June 2, 2024, it was an exceptional experience! The estate is enchanting, large and spacious places kept with care. We had the experience of wine tasting with lunch combined outside. 7 wines and oils paired with the dishes, all delicious and of great quality. The service was impeccable, our waitress Michela was super kind and extremely helpful. An experience to absolutely repeat, we will return to visit you soon!

Perfect holiday under the Tuscan sun - The experience was incredible!! We stayed in the hotel and had lunch the first day, tasting and tour the second day, and pasta making class the third day. Absolutely amazing experience with Mateo, Leo, Dino, and Lorenzo. With car rides, delicious wine and food, and impeccable service, our experience far exceeded our expectations. Can not say enough good things about our experience.

Tenuta Torciano winery visit 04 May 2024 - The wine tasting lunch was very nice. Mateo introduced us to the winery and brought my wife Tamme and I a glass of wine (red or white); we chose the Chardonnay, we enjoyed while we waited for our turn for the lunch and wine tasting. While waiting for our schedule wine tasting, Mateo learned of our son Matthew’s birthday and he insisted that we meet the owner Pierluigi Giachi and we sent Matthew a video of me, Tamme, and Pierluigi singing Happy Birthday to my son Matthew (Mateo in Italian). All the wines were good and our winery tasting host, Kiara, was friendly and instructive while interjecting humor in her presentation. We bought some wine, olive,oil, and balsamic vinegar and glaze; the wine was delivered to our door in the USA 6 days after the wine tasting event. A few items are being shipped from Italy and should arrive shortly. Short summary: go and enjoy the wine and atmosphere…JUST GO!

Highly recommended! - Definitely money well spent. Attentive and very professional staff, smiling. Very relaxing location (we had lunch on the terrace with my partner). Excellent food quality and quantity. The wine tasting was a highlight, the professional sommelier was very detailed and smiling. Satisfied!

Lunch and wine tasting experience - Our party of 6 visited the vineyard in October 2023 and had a wonderful experience!! Due to a major accident and traffic jam on the main Hwy, we did not arrive until over 1 hour later than scheduled. Despite this delay, they accommodated our party so that we could celebrate our friend’s birthday at the vineyard:). The wine tastings, lunch (multiple tastings), staff and setting was outstanding in such a beautiful setting! We ordered a couple bottles of wine, truffle olive oil and balsamic vinegar that arrived so timely to our home in Florida. I would highly recommend a visit and only wished we could have stayed longer!

Cooking Class and Wine Tasting Review - My family and I could not be more pleased with our visit to this vineyard. It started with a cooking class with Chef Dante. Let me take a second to specifically praise Chef Dante for being an absolute delight. He was funny, informative, knowledgable, and made us feel like family. His personality made the experience that much more entertaining. We then went wine tasting and also had lunch, including the pastas we had previously made with Chef Dante. Our maestro for the wine tasting, a member of the family who have run the vineyard for generations, also made the experience a great experience, even for those like some in my family who do not frequent wine tastings.

Lovely venue and lunch but disappointing wine tasting experience - We took the train to POGGIBONSI (San Gimignano) station. We hadn’t realised that the winery was a 15 minute drive away so we couldn’t combine a trip into San Gimignano on this occasion. The pre arranged taxi was excellent and was there to greet us on arrival. The winery was in a beautiful setting however the information about the wine and any price list was not immediately available. Although we were invited to tour the grounds there was little for us to actually see there. No terrace or social space to enjoy the surroundings. We were taken into a beautiful room where 6 glasses of wine for tasting were already placed on the table. One White, and 5 Red. No choice given and no information about the wines. We’d expected some info on each wine rather than being left to sip our way through the wines during the first course, which was a delicious plate of cheese and meats. There was no menu so we didn’t know what to expect. Bean soup followed. We were then served lasagne, also delicious. Final glass of rose wine was my favourite, this was accompanied by the biscotti. We’d asked about other wines such as Borolo but this wasn’t forthcoming or standard but starting at €70 . for special wines but too expensive. An alternative tasting was then offered and it was something we much preferred. A missed opportunity for us to buy some. We would have been interested to purchase wine directly on the spot but the price list was confusing and included U.K. delivery. We had to ask at reception for the price of a bottle and were told there was a 10% discount. Average bottles were €50-€70 and as it wasn’t special enough we declined. This experience could have been so much better in a more relaxed environment. It didn’t feel like wine tasting experience, rather a lunch with wine which you couldn’t choose yourself.
