We have found the Batzella Winery by chance, but the decision we made to visit this place was really worth it. If you don’t want to visit the big wineries but still enjoy the characters and personality of the Bolgheri wines - this place is for you. I can’t but say only good words about the family and the winery. Mr. Batzella turned up to be a nice and pleasant man who also speaks fluent English which was a good point for us. The tour was beautiful, from the vines to the cellar, to the fermentation tanks and warehouse. We learned how the Bolgheri region originally started to be a wine region, what is the modern trends in the Tuscany winemaking and also the unique story of Mr. Batzella himself. In the end of the excursion we tried some really nice wines, from which we personally liked the Tâm - a really passionate wine that truly accords with its name. Thank you very much once again and wish you only a great success for you, your wife and son in the future! By the way, missing your dog also, she was a funny tip in our trip! Best of luck!

Reviewed By JanetandJoey

We just arrived from our two week vacation and this was one of the highlights of our trip. We were looking forward to it and we were not disappointed. We happened to be the only people on this tour so we had Serena’s undivided attention! She is so down to earth, very informative and made us appreciate Bolgheri and the region’s wines even more. The grounds were immaculate and she was generous with the tastings (I lost count) that was paired with bread and their amazing olive oil. We prefer red over white but both were so good we bought several bottles of both. I researched a while before deciding on Terre del Marchesato and we can’t wait to go back! Thank you Serena!

Tenuta Poggio Rosso

Reviewed By Jenvd - Groningen, The Netherlands

We knew Poggio Rosso from a wine tasting a couple of years ago and came back for 10 days of glamping. The tents are spacious and luxurious providing everything you need, including a kitchen and a bathroom. They are located amidst of nature with a lot of space between the tents. The level of service provided was exemplary, we got everything we needed and more, including restaurant reservations, complimentary coffee and museum tickets and a late checkout free of charge. Another plus is that you can buy a bottle of their great wine at precisely the right temperature from the reception at any time. We had a great time, highly recommended!
