The lady is extremely knowledgeable and nice. She was fantastic. No haggling, helped immensely, and was describing the wines in great detail. Wonderful experience. Their selection is big too. You have to come here for wine if you’re able to when in Florence.
This is a gem in Firenze! Very knowledgeable staffs introduced not only wine but historic geography of Italy and different varieties of grape. The pairing food was amazing. I have to say I enjoy it very much! Very affordable ! Highly recommended ! Purchased some good Barolo !
Our first trip to Florence and this place did not disappoint. We came here 3 times, after having such wonderful conversations with the staff, and of course enjoying the wine. The experience is educational, as they really take the time to explain the different wines and its relation to the region. Would 1000% recommend this place to anyone looking to enjoy delicious wine and learn about the tastings.
Absolutely wonderful experience. Had a wine flight, and a charcuterie board and the staff were so accommodating and lovely and the wine was amazing 10/10 recommend. This place should definitely be on your list
Loved this place, stopped here on a Friday afternoon in December and it was so quiet. We had 2 bottles of wine and shared a large platter - ended up paying about €85 (£75). Not all done is on the menu, but you can have a roam around and pick your bottle. Service was amazing, the man working there was friendly and made us feel so welcome. He even got us some treats on the house. Definitely recommend!
