Summer is the season of sunshine, bright colors and outdoor lunches at the winery.
Strawberries and cherries are among the most popular fruits while the flowers are blooming. The best way to celebrate summer is to organize an outdoor lunch, or visit the vineyard and enjoy a typical lunch with wine tasting at the winery. You can book unique experiences in Tuscany and choose your favorite between lunch, dinner or barbecue.
To spend a nice day outdoors even once you're back home, just follow a few simple tips.
Tips for summer
Setting the table
Choose an old wooden table or a beautiful marble one to lay out the white porcelain outdoors, with a colorful centerpiece: flowers, or a composition made with seasonal fruit. Outdoor dining is always a moment of celebration to share with company.
Tips for summer
Fresh and light
The menu must be fresh and light: choose seasonal ingredients and prepare quick, tasty recipes, such as a salad with cheese and tomatoes. Pair it with a fresh, light wine, perfect for the summer season, such as Vernaccia di San Gimignano. Better still if you put the wine somewhere cool before serving.

To end on a sweet note
Finish the day on a sweet note: an ice cream seasoned with Vin Beato dessert wine, which is also excellent with cantuccini biscuits or tiramisù. If you're an ice cream lover, book a Cooking Class to learn the ancient art of making gelato.
