Highlights

A Full Meal, Not Just a Tasting Plate. Four courses — antipasti, primo, secondo, and dessert — served at the table, making this a genuine lunch experience rather than a standing tasting.

10 Wines Paired Throughout the Meal. From the first bruschetta to the last cantuccino, every course is accompanied by a wine chosen to complement it — a practical, enjoyable introduction to Tuscan wine and food pairing.

Flexible Session Times. With five daily start times (11am, 12pm, 1pm, 2pm, and 4pm), this is one of the easiest experiences to fit into any Tuscany itinerary.

The Right Balance of Simplicity and Quality. No vineyard walk, no cellar visit — just the table, the food, and the wines. For guests who want a great Tuscan lunch with real wine depth, this is the most straightforward way to get it.

Dietary Alternatives Available. Gluten-free, vegan, and vegetarian menus are available on request — please inform the team at booking.
