Just 15 minutes form the hotel you may enjoy not only the tasteful Tuscan cooking, but also the romantic and poetic atmosphere that characterises the delightful Medieval village of Bolgheri.

Passing through the famous cypresses boulevard, chanted in the renowned Carducci's poet - that spent here his youth, - you arrive at this village with the perfect mood to welcome an outstanding view.

As far as the wine is concerned in Bolgheri, we may only say that there you may find first-rate wines in the art of wine-making in the world. Indeed the best Italian wine growers have been contending for securing a strip of land, blessed by God. If we have to use just one word to describe Bolgheri, we will say: "unmissable".

La Taverna del Pittore Restaurant is in 4, Largo Nonna Lucia. It is full of histoical authenticity: indeed it has been one of the first restaurant in Bolgheri.

It is set in Belvedere Square of the small village that views the wonderful landscape that overlooks the hills up to the Etruscan coast.

In summer, the restaurant is characterised also by the outdoor area: a stop is a must and not only to taste its cooking but also to enjoy the wonderful scenery that this village recalls.

During the winter, guests usually appreciate the warm atmosphere in a homely place, characterised also by a professional and refined service.

Of particular worth it is the new "Fireplace Hall" that gives a touch of warmth and familiarity.
