The holiday season is nearing and there’s no better time to explore the hills of Florence as the temperatures dip and winter-warming reds bring colour to our cheeks. Ruffino’s flagship Poggio Casciano wine estate, just 30 minutes from central Florence, is the ideal place to experience the magic of Christmas.
Wine lovers are in for treat throughout December at the on-site Enoteca Ruffino wine shop with special pre-Christmas discounts on all Ruffino wines, which are exquisitely presented in tempting gift boxes that will solve many a gift dilemma. Countless combinations are on offer, from signature Chianti Classico to opulent Supertuscans, stylish whites and celebratory bubbles. The Poggio Casciano wine estate is where iconic bottlings like Modus, Modus Primo and Alauda are all crafted if you’re looking for uber local labels. Unsure of a friend’s tastes? Opt for the gift card at a range of values, so that they can choose their favorite tipple. Gift vouchers are also available so that recipients can indulge in dinner at Ruffino’s acclaimed Tre Rane restaurant, a tour and tasting experience, or even treat themselves to an overnight stay at Casa Ruffino in the new year with its vineyard views, gorgeous pool and sumptuous breakfasts.
Don’t miss the Ruffino Christmas Experience on the weekend of December 16 and 17, when customers can visit the historic cellars and savor a complimentary taste of all Ruffino wines from 10am onwards. It’s a charming way to stock up on gifts ahead of the holiday season, while the discounts remain available.
For family lunches or work dinners, the Tuscan fine dining restaurant Tre Rane will stay open for lunch daily and for dinner on Fridays and Saturdays throughout the holidays. Savor the a la carte menu options based on local and seasonal ingredients. Smoked duck breast with mandarin compote, guinea fowl ravioli with mushroom and truffle cream, and Tuscan rack of venison with leeks and celeriac are just a few of the favourites. Plus, the restaurant is open with dedicated menus for Christmas Day lunch and New Year’s Eve for a special celebration!
Tours and tastings are available every day at Poggio Casciano wine estate from 10am to 7pm throughout December, except on December 24, 25 and 26.
