Book a tasting of our organic/biodynamic wines produced on the Lucca hills; we will take a tour of the vineyard near the cellar, a visit to the internal rooms and finally we will taste the wines, oil and honey under a pergola.
I will sit at the table with the customer to explain the history of our family business, our philosophy on natural wines, the manufacturing processes and the organoleptic characteristics of our 4 wines accompanied by croutons and local cheeses, our extra virgin olive oil and our acacia, chestnut, millefiori and pollen honeys.
Depending on the period in which they visit us, they can assist in some of the manufacturing processes (harvest, foot pressing, vinification, bottling, labeling all done manually).
We will try to make our customers understand the love and passion we put into our work.

5.00Excellent Welcoming, professionalism and fair prices: when the quality is thick, even better. The “Hostess” deserves a round of applause, for her kindness and smile.
Just fabulous!

5.00We visited this great little winery and estate as part of an organised tour of a couple of wineries in the Lucca area. We were welcomed by the owner, Francesca, who was so capable and explained all about her wonderful work and products. We were provided with a huge buffet of local produce, oils, honey and obviously wine. She also has a farm house which she rents out! Such an enjoyable visit! We were so happy and enjoyed the wine and honey, we arranged with Francesca to have some shipped home. Something to remember our visit with, although it might not last very long!! Might just have to sort out a longer stay in her farm house!
We had a fantastic...

5.00Francesca was a lovely, perfect hostess and made my wife and I feel at home. Paulo from Enoteca Vinni in Lucca recommended the visit as one of his favorite vinyards. Definitely worth a visit to this small yet flavorful winemaker and his wife. Grazie Francesca. Buona fortuna.
Recommended on the warmest! Fantastic experience.

5.00Fantastic and authentic experience. Delightful tastes on both the wine and the food, and the surroundings are absolutely impeccable. Francesca is a warm and knowledgeable hostess who taught us a lot of news about wine production, olive production and honey production. Great experience that is highly recommended!
Delight and Knowledge—Enjoy!

5.00Francesca was such a delight. We had a wonderful experience with the wines and appetizers. But the conversations and involvement with her passion for wine, honey and other aspects of this gathering was the best. We learned so much that we simply didn’t know even about the honey business. I highly recommend this opportunity for an enjoyable stop to have all your questions answered.
Perfect wine tasting

5.00The wine was delicious, the food memorable, and the experience was once in a lifetime. We learned about the art of traditional wine making, had all our questions answered, and experienced delicious food and wine in a lovely setting. Our host, Franchesca, was knowledgeable, entertaining, and wonderful. I wouldn’t change a thing. We could even have wine, olive oil and honey shipped home for us!
