On the trip from Siena to San Gimignano we stopped in Poggibonsi for lunch. We opted for the Bottega Torciano restaurant, and we weren’t fooled. It was an extremely good choice. A magical place with a nice atmosphere that brightened our day. Typical Tuscan dishes are served ( Tagliere di salumi e formaggi - Plate of tuscan salami and cheeses, Lasagna al ragù-lasagna with meat sauce, Filetto di maiale con riduzione al Chianti Classico-pork fillet with Chianti Classico reduction), accompanied by fine wines. Everything was extremely tasty, all praise to the chef. Everything is very neat and the service is extremely high quality. Great Experience.

What an amazing day! It started with truffle hunting with Roberto and his two dogs - Ori and Chloe! We learned a lot about truffle hunting and how the dogs are trained. Chloe was 'in training' and it was fun to see how Roberto used both dogs. They found about 12 truffles in all of various sizes! Then we headed to a small family winery where we ate the fruits of our labor!!! We had a 4 course 'absolutely delicious' meal, tasted a lot of great wines, in addition to olive oil and honey! We even bought a bottle of wine to take with us and watched Sylvia add the DOCG label by hand (which are closely tracked by the region)! We had a great tour guide, Paelo, with us the entire day! He picked us us at our farmhouse, was our translator when needed, was very courteous and informative! I would highly recommend this very unique experience! And I would recommend Tuscany Private Tours. They were very easy to communicate with and very responsive!
