Journeying to this Wine Cellar is like stepping back in time and immersing oneself in history: it captures the spirit of the rich Tuscan soil and the much-cherished and joyfully consumed wine that our ancient ancestors, the Etruscans, held dear and worked on with persistence and fervour centuries before Christianity.
