Tasting nights at Dolciano Grand-ducal estate

Six events between June and September will accompany you from sunset onwards to toast the most beautiful season of the year, in one of the most fascinating places in the Valdichiana Senese area: the  Dolciano Grand-ducal estate. Located just 3 km from the historic center of Chiusi and 4 km from the lake of the same name and the Bonifica cycle and pedestrian path, the estate preserves important historical, cultural and architectural testimonies.

The ancient home of the Medici family, with its historic rooms and Italian garden, will offer you the opportunity to visit, through a guided tour, the church, commissioned by the Grand Duke of Tuscany, embellished with precious internal frescoes and an imposing portico with columns, the museum of 20th century peasant civilization built inside the ancient granary, the kindergarten, the school, the beautiful recently renovated lemon groves and the old cellars dating back to 1778.

Following the visits (scheduled for 7 p.m.), literary themed dinners or aperitifs based on local products, from 8 p.m. Access to the event is by reservation only.
