February 1, 2022 Toi Mattera

Montepulciano makes a great base for exploring the Tuscan hill towns. Just make sure to pack well-broken-in walking shoes, because cars aren’t allowed in the center of town. Explore the Duomo of Montepulciano and the Palazzo Tarugi… or sample the local wine, Vino Nobile di Montepulciano, which has been praised for centuries.

Parco Villa Trecci

The park of about three hectares spreads out on the hill between the Val d’Orcia and the Val di Chiana, in front of Montepulciano. It is discovered along a path that reveals different environments; the garden of the gray plants, the large flowerbed of the grasses, the lake of the aquatic, the rose garden, the lemon-house, the extended green spaces interrupted by secular olive trees and bushes with fragrant flowers.

Tuscan Cooking Classes by Le Caggiole

Owner of Le Caggiole, millenary farmhouse and home of my family for more than 7 generations. I spent many years with my grandmother learning to cook dishes of the oldest tradition. Based on this precious cultural heritage, I studied the ingredients, their seasonality and sustainable production systems, as well as cooking and tasting techniques. Following this passion, I have been Chef in agriturismo and also Sommelier. The last 5 years, I share these passions by organizing cooking classes.

Italian Language School Il Sasso - Day Class

The Italian language school Il Sasso is located in Montepulciano, a beautiful, renaissance town that stands on a hill surrounded by vineyards and olive groves in southern Tuscany. The school was founded in 1983 by people who are still running it today and it is recognized by the Ministry of Public Education. Foreign students are of every age group and come from all parts of the globe.

Reviewed By davebI4403OD

I’ve just returned home after my second two-month stay in Montepulciano attending Il Sasso Scuola di Italiano. Yes, my second stay but certainly not my last. Is it habit-forming? Perhaps, but pleasantly so, as I learned from other students who have enjoyed many more years there than I. After trying and dropping other language schools (Italian and others), I finally discovered a real gem at Il Sasso, thanks to the encouragement and support of the extremely talented teachers and staff, all of whom made me feel welcome from the first day. The teachers I had - Sara, Roberta, Francesca, Eleonora, Gaia, Cinzia, Constanza and Alberto - kept classes lively and educational. And special thanks to Heike who kept me well informed and in the right classroom at the right time. Montepulciano also is a gem, perhaps the most-beautiful of Tuscany’s hill towns, where the shops and stores are accustomed to seeing many tourists yet welcome Il Sasso students and are saintly patient with our halting yet enthusiastic Italian. This fall I joined with five other students to spend five days with Sara exploring in-depth the rich bounty of regional art and culture, expanding our horizons (literally and figuratively) as we wandered through cathedrals, underground cities, museums, and abbazie, gazing at Italian history come alive through Sara’s profound knowledge of her country’s heritage. To her a special thanks and to all the staff, I echo an earlier post: non vedo l’ora di ritornare!
