We had an amazing 5 nights in San Casiano at Villa I Baronnci on a private tour planned by Vittorio and executed by Matteo. The variety of wineries and other experiences really set them apart from others. Truffle hunting, cooking class, cheese farm, and delicious lunches every day. From small private vineyards to large, we experienced it all. If you want to go to Tuscany, this is the way to go.
