We will visit the main part of the House and the ancient stables, and you will be told how life was in ancient times in the places of our interest. We will then invite you to the Secret Garden, where together we will learn about local products and wines, which will vary from time to time depending on the season. It will be an invitation to the home of friends, to thank you for choosing to focus your attention on the history of our Podere. If the temperature allows it, we will stay outside, otherwise we will do the tasting inside in one of the magnificent rooms of the location. It will be an unforgettable experience, which will drag you directly into the rural history of the Valdichiana, making you discover anecdotes, proverbs, songs and poems of rural life. You will be accompanied by the noble descendant of the family to which the Leopoldina has always belonged, and who will tell you, only if you wish, the history of her own family.
