Live the vineyard life in Tenuta Torciano Winery

Tenuta Torciano opens its doors to some of the most original experiences you can have in uncontaminated nature, all around you, 360 degrees.

Cooking in the vineyard

Three kitchens, one open-air classroom

Thanks to our three kitchens, and the "Grand Chefs" mobile kitchen, you can cook right in the vineyard, surrounded by nature, with gentle green hills around you and the towers of San Gimignano on the horizon. The Cooking Classes at Tenuta Torciano are a complete, original culinary experience: our guests learn to cook the traditional dishes of simple, renowned Tuscan cuisine. The flavors, the aromas, the vegetables picked straight from our garden, the grapes ripening at your fingertips, the glasses of wine that go with it all, shared with people you love — this is what it means to live the vineyard life.

Our chefs turn simple ingredients from the earth into memorable dishes, teaching their craft as they go — an experience guests carry home and relive with friends and family. The Cooking Classes are always led by family members alongside our professional chefs, who share the secrets of local cuisine and involve each guest in preparing that day's chosen recipes, always with fresh ingredients.

Farm to plate

From the garden to the table

It's the guiding idea behind Tenuta Torciano Winery: the restaurants inside the Estate and at Bottega Torciano in San Gimignano are the culinary and wine domains of eight chefs, who build their menus together with the farmers and gardeners who bring the fruits of organic cultivation straight to the table. Freshly picked garden vegetables, fresh and aged cheeses, honey, figs, and the grapes of Sangiovese, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Petit Verdot, Morellino, Trebbiano Toscano, Chardonnay and Vernaccia di San Gimignano all find their way to the palate, whether in the "Grand Chefs" mobile kitchen or in the winery's "Cantine 2 Supertuscan" kitchen, home to the Torciano Cooking School.

Beyond the cooking class

Oil, wine, truffles and celebrations

There's the artisan "Oilpressing" at the oil mill, Wine Tastings in the cellar, Truffle Hunting lessons on the estate's truffle farm, and the Art & Wine events held among the vineyards, part of internationally known celebrations. It's all designed to help you relax and truly live the vineyard life — a long weekend of Tuscan harvest.

Wellness from the vineyard

Beauty treatments from the 2019 harvest

Well-being matters here too: starting with the 2019 harvest, we offer beauty and therapeutic treatments drawing on the polyphenolic molecules of our grapes — precious antioxidants that play a key role in regulating cellular and inflammatory aging caused by free radicals. Our face and body creams, made from polyphenols extracted from the skins of Sangiovese grapes, leave skin more toned, firm and compact: like turning back the clock 10 years.

Our cellar cares about beauty and health just as much as it cares about how its products, wines and organic oils are grown, recycling the berries used to make our fine wines into creams and body products — beauty and pleasure, inseparable.

Tenuta Torciano is not simply a winery — it's a family's way of life, welcoming guests for 13 generations, one that involves every sense.
