Excellent exclusive and romantic location inside of a Winefarm in the countryside about 4 Km from Poggibonsi (5 minutes by car). Here they produce very good quality local wines, Vinsanto liquor and oliven oil! The place is ideal for a special occasion such as an anniversary! Sometime they have also the Florentine Beef. The menu it's small because often they change it as they use only local fresh ingredients in according with the season of the year! Gioia (the waitress) and Alberto & Sara (the chefs) are special people and really very professional! The best you can find in a restaurant! They are the first on Tripadvisor in the area since when they started! In summer they are open also at lunch with the closer Bistrot located in the courtyard of the winefarm just next to the restaurant itself. Really awesome location, highly recommended!
