We had the privilege of visiting Sant'Agnese Farm in Italy, October of 2018, and fell in love with their exceptional wines. We left feeling very much like a part of the Sant'Agnese family. This year Choctaw Lodge Retreat in Panama City, Florida USA hosted a wine tasting and dinner party presented by Alessandro and Carlos along with Alexandria. It was definitely a big five-star experience with their amazing wines paired with an exquisite meal. We love keeping their wine in stock and highly, highly recommend this incredible winery!

My wife and I visited for our honeymoon and absolutely loved this experience. Great wine and balsamic (we still order a case stateside when we can), great staff and the brothers were charming and informative. Plus, beautiful views of Tuscany. HIGHLY recommend when you’re in Italy.

We stopped in for a quick tasting after reading up on the winery and were glad we did. It's not as complementary as some; I don't believe they do tours. But the tasting was quite nice. And the panoramic views were straight from a Tuscan postcard. We sampled everything and left with a bottle of I Sodi di San Niccolò, their special blend. It's different than all the Chianti, which theirs is also very good. We look forward to finding them in the US!
