5.00My husband and I did the Private Wine, Evo Oil, Balsamic Vinegar Experience & Truffle Meal on our honeymoon. The entire experience was amazing and the winery was absolutely beautiful. We ordered a lot of wine to send back home to the USA! We cannot wait to go back when we return.
Spectacular view and setting!

5.00We had an amazing wine tasting experience with our family of 6 at Podere la Marronaia. It was a lovely day with the most beautiful landscape of the winery and views of San Gimignano. The wine, evo and balsamic vinegar was delicious, we even ordered some to send home. And the lunch to go along with it made it the perfect afternoon. The staff/family at the winery could not have been more lovely and welcoming. We’d highly recommend this experience!
Fantastic wine tasting and lunch

5.00We loved our visit to the winery! The setting was absolutely magical — so beautiful. The food was delicious and the wine, olive oil, and vinegar tastings were great fun and also delicious. Our server spoke perfect English and was so helpful and informative. We ordered several bottles to be shipped home and we would love to return and take a cooking class!
Wonderful meal and tasting with amazing views

5.00Postcard views, wonderful meal, excellent oils, vinegars, and wines. Our host was so helpful and answered our numerous questions. We had 6 wines offered with the meal and dessert and requested another that was just as good as the rest. We shipped oil, vinegar, and wine home, and are enjoying them. Will go back when we return to San Gimignano.
5 STAR Experience!

5.00AMAZING! There were so many wonderful elements to our experience. This is a must if you are in the area and would like to experience some of the best Tuscany offers. The family has the most amazing property and views. We tried the aged balsamics, olive oils and finishing oils that are superior. I truly found the wines exceptional and I really appreciate the fact that things are beyond organic, they are biodynamic! The service was 5 star and I highly reccomend Podere La Marronaia!
Fantastic tour with beautiful views

5.00This was such a highlight for us! We absolutely loved our wine and olive oil tasting along with a lovely Tuscan lunch! We sat on the patio ( a bit hot this day but we did have misters) and a view of San Gimignano! We enjoyed all the wines we tried and even tried some extra Rose’ that was on the house. The olive oil and balsamic vinegar tasting was fabulous and we ordered some to take home and for delivery to our home in the states. Everyone was so friendly and did such a great job of explaining the wines and oils. We did the 1130 tasting and had plenty of time to go into San Gimignano for shopping afterwards. Highly recommend this tour!

3.00Not what I expected. The place was near a big road so you could hear the cars driving by at high speeds, the tables are on oak barrels which are too high to sit at and too low to stand. We had a swarm of bees come to the table and the waiters did nothing except apologize. The appetizers they brought were dry, and pasta was better, but there was a lot to be desired. The cherry on top was the owner who told us we couldn’t get our money back for booking 4 people for the tasting when it was two kids and two adults. ( we had specified it in the notes, someone should have notified us of the mistake. BEFORE the visit). So I ended up paying for a wine tasting for 4. They did not even offer a free bottle of evoo for God’s sake. We have travelled the world and had many wine tastings, this one needed a lot more improvement. The quality of the wine was average at best. I don’t recommend. Save your money and time and try another place.
The way life should be lived!

5.00This was the first stop on the visit to Italy, and it set the perfect tone for a wonderful experience. From the delicious wines to the great food and add in the absolutely gorgeous views, you must experience this place. Whether you start your Italian adventure here or end it, nothing will take the stress out of you like an afternoon here.
Nice afternoon. Tasty food. Not much information.

4.00The balsamic vinegars and olive oils were very tasty. The lunch was very good. The staff was helpful and the view of San Giamiagiano was spectacular. The only letdown was that there was no information about how any of the products were produced. We had hoped to understand oil and vinegar production and perhaps see some of the process. A nice afternoon, though.
