Organic Farm Lunch and Wine Tasting at Tenuta Casanova

  • Have lunch on a wonderful organic farm. While the owner shows you around the property, his wife prepares a delicious and unforgettable lunch for your private group. The owner will also take you to his cellar to admire his two limited-edition wines, the Super Tuscans and Chianti Classico, with just a few bottles produced each year, as well as to the nearby Acetaia, a vinegar cellar with old vinegar.

  • Experience a unique dining setting while taking in the amazing Tuscan panorama. You will taste the organic specialities of the Casanova Estate, such as typical lasagna with traditional sauces, crostini, local meats and cold cuts, legumes, seasonal vegetables, honey, and cheeses seasoned with incredible aged balsamic vinegar. Wine accompanies this lunch every step of the way, with each of the four main courses and dessert paired with a different and distinctive glass of wine.

  • The experience concludes with delicious ice cream topped with balsamic vinegar or other desserts, accompanied by an excellent dessert wine.
