March brings the first sunny days to Tenuta Torciano — the weather turns milder, though not yet warm enough to put winter away for good.
In the kitchen
New-season vegetables and full-bodied reds
Our garden fills with new-season vegetables — swiss chard, broccoli, artichokes, spinach and potatoes — ready for the kitchen. The air smells of soups and hearty dishes, and in the winery we pair them with full-bodied reds such as Nobile di Montepulciano and Chianti Classico, or a younger Chianti.
In the garden
Tulips, irises and buttercups in bloom
It's a good month to relax after a day outdoors, with the scent of freshly picked flowers and a glass of white wine — delicate and fragrant, like our Vernaccia. March is also the month we celebrate Women's Day.
A fun way to mark it: spend a full day at the farm, with horseback riding and lunch with wine tasting in the cellar — simple, but a lovely way to spend the day together.
See you in March, at Tenuta Torciano.
