Olio, Alya, Amaya
At the Tavola di Guido restaurant we use Olio, Alya, Amaya, the extra virgin olive oils from our One Belvedere Farm: 12 hectares of olive trees of the Maurino and Leccino varieties, cultivated with organic and biodynamic techniques. The olives are harvested by hand and cold pressed.
Cellar
Enter the fascinating world of wines and let us take you on a tasting journey.
The selection of wines follows the line of the cuisine by proposing Italian companies with a focus on the Tuscan territory including small organic and biological realities carefully selected by our Sommelier.
The wine menù was created thinking about what a wine leaves us: an emotion, a territory, a memory.
Our research is based on the choice of national wines, with a close link with the terroir, climate and grape variety.
Every year during the winter period we go to find the producers personally, visiting the cellars, their vineyards and tasting the wine produced on site.
The research, the tasting and the discovery of new products are our winning card to have an always updated wine list, with new proposals and with a careful selection of organic and/or biodynamic wines.
