Perfect Tuscany Wine Experience
Caesar, 5th Generation winemaker, and his water dog Milo, welcomed us warmly. He masterfully wove his family’s history of winemaking and their connection with the local community together in a 3 hour experience of his beautiful, historic estate. A tour of the interior of the former hospital turned familial palazzo was candid and memorable. If you are looking for a quintessential Tuscan winemaking/tasting experience that culminates in a very generous tasting, look no further! The wines are varied and lovely!
Our tour at the Majnoni family estate in Vico d’Elsa was truly unforgettable. The host, she was warm, welcoming, and made us feel right at home. The food and wine were excellent, and the entire experience was great value for money. Beautiful surroundings, perfect hospitality — highly recommended!
Ci sono stato per una degustazione dopo un trekking. Il posto è molto fenomenale ed ha una vista mozzafiato su San Gimignano, ne vale assolutamente la pena prenotarsi una sosta per la degustazione.
I loro vini sono biologici, così come i salumi della zona serviti durante il wine tasting e l'olio, anch'esso da loro prodotto.
Per fortuna c'è ancora chi predilige la produzione di qualità a prezzi più che competitivi rispetto ad altri produttori con marchi blasonati.
I proprietari dell'azienda sono molto disponibili e vi racconteranno con passione la storia dell'azienda e i loro metodi di produzione.
Solo 5 stelle perché 6 non si può.

We have had an amazing visit to your wine estate today with our Organic Tuscany group! Such a learning experience both in the process of organic wine production and tasting of the different aged wines...thank you , Cesare, for your knowledge and passion which is evident in your sharing not only of the wine but the long family history! The lovely lunch and wine pairings was bellissimo! It's a must see experience.... you will not leave empty handed, trust me! Oh, did I tell you you must sample their olive oil, too. Good news ... you can do take away or have it shipped! Thank you so much! Judi Daunton
Posto magnifico con ricca storia e buon vino 🍷 (e molto di piu). Bravissima Chiara che ci ha fatto da Cicerone in questo posto intrattenendoci con un dettagliato quadro storico degli abitanti del casolare, del loro posto nella storia Italiana e Toscana, ma allo stesso tempo non tralasciando nulla sul quadro tecnico della produzione del vino.

Through the fascinating history of Cesare’s family, we gained real insight into the evolution of Tuscan lands. He gave me a new appreciation of the challenges farmers face when they commit to organic farming. A charming host, the luncheon was as elegant as the home we were privileged to tour. Thank you for your commitment and generosity! A 5 star excursion from anywhere.

Wonderful tour followed by a private lunch. Tour focused on the family history at the farm, the intricacies of wine making, tour of the residence and through the gardens where there is an abundance of large and small turtles. Private lunch was excellent with four or five wines sampled. Also, a nineteenth century olive press was next to the table.
All in all, a great time. Highly recommend a visit.
Dear Petro,
It was a truly wonderful and extraordinary experience visiting the beautiful historic family-owned estate, Fattoria Majnoni Guicciardini. Learning about the rich history of the vineyard and olive pressing was so insightful.
We especially enjoyed ending our day with a delicious lunch that was perfectly complemented by the excellent wine pairings.
Thank you again for your gracious hospitality.
Sincerely,
Brigitte
