Terrible experience. The staff was completely misleading and took advantage of us being tourists. We scheduled a time to come out to the Villa to see the grounds and have a wine tasting and dinner. Once we got there (after shelling out 60 euros for cab fare from Florence) they conveniently informed us that the Villa has been rented out to a private family and we wouldn t be able to see it. What a joke. When I confronted the staff on their tactics they were extremely rude and played the card that we should have asked before coming . How about you inform your guests in advance if the main attraction of the entire winery is not available? Food was on par with what you would expect. Wine was underwhelming at best. Bottom line, don t trust this place. They have no problems fleecing you and taking your money along the way. To top it off I had to spend another 60 euros to get back to Florence. Such a wasted night in such a beautiful city like Florence. That s the most disappointing part of it all.
