Gastronomy
The Good Tuscan Cuisine – we offer our guests the possibility to have dinner in the house – half board – and taste the typical Tuscan tradition dishes.
Wine Tasting of Tuscan Wines – At Le Poggiola Wine Tasting meetings are held on a regular basis. Red and White Wine is produced in the Farm, and guests will have the chance of being introduced to the traditional taste of locally produced red and white wines.
Cooking classes – Those who have a passion for cooking – as we do – can follow Tuscan cooking classes of one or more days. All depends on the time you have and on how much you want to learn about new recipes and tricks!
The road of “smells” – Could miss part of the garden devoted to herbs? For us and for those who want to share this passion we have created a small “Aromario“. You can find different varieties of sage, lavender, rosemary, thyme and oregano … and … well come to find out!
