With Pantone naming Greenery its colour of the year, many companies found a fresh push to embrace the "green" philosophy — that way of thinking and acting on themes like nature, biological choices, recycling, protecting the environment and animals, and healthy living. Torciano chose to ride this same wave, with its own green initiatives across the estate.
Wine
Green like our wines
It's no accident that our Poggioaicieli, a high-quality Vernaccia from our own vineyards, carries pale golden tones that lean toward the brilliant green of the San Gimignano landscape and its sinuous hills. And as you enjoy the intense flavour of our Vicario, it's hard not to let your thoughts travel to us, to our deep attachment to the roots of Tuscany and the care we put into the harmony we offer our guests. When you feel the heart of a UNESCO World Heritage town like San Gimignano held in a single drop of Terrestre, you understand just how close we feel to Mother Earth and her precious nature.
Animals
Our Green…Oasis
As lovers of nature, we at Tenuta Torciano keep expanding the animal protection we offer: among the latest arrivals are splendid peacocks with elegant, refined green tails, living jewellery you can't help but admire. Staying true to our biological theme, we've also welcomed the lovely Wyandotte hen, a breed with distinctive markings and a gentle, affectionate nature. Thanks to these hens, at Tenuta Torciano you'll find fresh, biological eggs for lunches and dinners full of healthy nutrients. And let's not forget the precious Elsa river, which watches serenely over our area and is part of the Valdelsa’s Ecomuseum.
Dining
And talking about lunch…
To complete this green picture, we can't forget the wonderful chance Tenuta Torciano offers to dine outdoors: choose between our lush, elegant garden or our intoxicating vineyard, both surrounded by the heavenly scenery of the Tuscan countryside and its quiet, peaceful hills. Don't miss the chance to enjoy healthy, delicious food alongside our splendid resident animals and the breathtaking panoramas of the San Gimignanese scenery.
