L'Orto in Tavola In Casole d'elsa

14/10/2025: We wandered in by chance but were immediately struck by the beauty of the wine bar, which was converted from a cellar. It was truly charming. The crostini were one better than the last, excellent cured meats, and excellent wine! The sommelier, truly kind and knowledgeable, recommended and explained every tasting. The local products from small, truly delicious wineries were delicious. It's impossible to leave without a bottle of Montepulciano red! Definitely not to be missed!

27/09/2025: Strolling along Montepulciano's main street, past the windows of artisans, painters, wine shops, restaurants, churches, museums, and exhibitions, while waiting to return to Genoa, drawn by a beautifully furnished wine tasting shop, we were greeted with elegance, professionalism, and empathy by a lady whose kindness and beauty immediately made us understand that this would be a wonderful experience. And so it was, and will remain a fond memory of this brief stop in a splendid Tuscan town. To begin, we enjoyed two glasses of wine, a white and a rosé, both fantastic. A selection of platters, carefully arranged by the lady, included excellent cheeses, cured meats, and a historic giardiniera. Then, a taste of a wonderful historic wine, Grono di Pierino Farina, a delightful aroma and flavor that satisfies the palate and leaves the mouth full of flavor. The lady spoiled us with her helpfulness and knowledge. We were truly satisfied and delighted to have spent so pleasantly part of our short stay in Montepulciano in this characteristic establishment.
