We had an amazing time touring Lornano. We learned much about the process from vine to cellar to bottle. The tasting was just as spectacular as the tour. Great wine, fabulous experience. Thank you Teresa

We visited in October 2019 (it took entirely too long for me to post this) and had a lovely time at this winery. It's a charming, small, family-owned winery with a stunning view of the Chianti hills. The wine was so delicious we had 3 bottles shipped home. Lovely people, beautiful rooftop views and outstanding wine...what more could you ask for?

Although a small museum, it left us with a very pleasant aftertaste. They are not only expose artifacts, but are organized in creative compositions which represent battle scenes. Some medieval armor and weapons are left out for people to try on which brings a very unusual experience. I’m a 50 year old man and I had some of the best moments of my life playing with weapons - imagine how happy kids would be visiting this place! Many thanks to the owners and maintainers of this amazing museum for such a memorable pleasure.
