About Us

We are one of the historical restaurants of the area, started in 1968 and run by a family of restaurateurs until 1993. Since then it has been in the hands of the estate. We work insencently to find local produce that we can trace to the source and where possible, organic. Everything is home made and our passion is the flavour and taste of our dishes. We love the recipes that evoke memories and past traditions from all over Italy because we believe that food should not travel too far but that culinary tradition absolutley should!

The Restaurant

Situated in the original but refurbished stables, and with elegant contemporary flair, the restaurant’s atmosphere is warm and welcoming, while the surrounding garden enhances the overall mood with a touch of romance.
During the hotter months meals are served outdoors under a bower of climbing roses and wisteria. Here the gourmet can savour the true aroma and flavour of the Chianti region.

The Kitchen

Fried cod marinated with a drop of vinegar, onion, raisins and pine kernels, the excellent cold cuts of the Chini butcher in Gaiole, our terrine made from deer caught in Chianti. Fresh, homemade pasta with organic flour from “Pereto” of Rapolano estate, with a spiced pork sauce. The infuriating wild boar that feed off our vines are cooked in “dolceforte” from a recipe of the farm manager’s wife that worked at Coltibuono in the 1970s and then our tender and tasty roast pork with an apple and mustard puree. Why not try the parfait made with chestnuts from the Pratomagno hills and chestnut honey from the Ginestra cooperative and the unforgettable chocolate cake with wild fruit jam from the Abetone mountains……..and much more!
