Full description
Who said that to experience Tuscany you need a set table?
In San Gimignano, the perfect break lies on the ground, among the rows of Vernaccia vines, with a view of the world's most famous towers and the scent of wine in the air: a picnic among Italy's most iconic vineyards.
Choose your bottle - white, red or rosé - take your basket and find your favourite spot among the vines. The only rule? Enjoy the moment.
What we will do
The appointment is at the Palagetto winery , in the hills of San Gimignano, surrounded by tidy vineyards and the scents of the Tuscan countryside.
You will be welcomed by one of the staff, who will make you choose a bottle of wine from Vernaccia, Chianti or Rosato and hand you the basket prepared for 2 people. Inside you will find a mix of Tuscan flavours: cold meats, cheeses, pappa al pomodoro, a cold first course (products may vary according to seasonality) and, of course, a bottle of water.
Then you can go to one of the indicated viewpoints, among the rows of vines with a view of the towers of San Gimignano, or choose your favourite corner among the vineyards. In the basket you will find everything you need: tablecloth, glasses, cutlery and cloth to lay on the grass.
For about 1½ to 2 hours you can enjoy your slow break, amid nature and tranquillity. When you return the basket, you will take only one thing with you: the desire to return.
