We spent 2 wonderful nights just north of Greve one year at Castillo Vicchiomaggio. They had (at the time) a dinner on Tuesday night featuring 7 different selections from their winery. I learned that biscotti goes really well dipped not just in coffee but also a desert wine. I think the dinner was great as well (but what food in Italy isn’t ?)

Biscotti are my favorite dessert.
Did you hire a tour to ride in Tuscany or do your own thing?
So far, Lake Como and Tuscany are definitely on the plan.
