Here we grow all our best biological products: wine, oil, and cereals. We rear, with our biological production of fodder, corn meal, barley flour and sunflower flour , cattle of SELECTED CHIANINA BREED. This is one of the most ancient Tuscan breeds, once sung by Latin poets and portrayed in the Roman bas-reliefs, and today considered the best bovine breed for meat in the world.
From this breed, as by Tuscan tradition, we cut the "fiorentina" steak, that is thick, underdone, succulent and strictly barbecued.
At our farm FATTORIA POGGIO ALLORO we organize dinners with our guests, serving only our products: meat (beef, chicken, rabbit, galeeny, pork), vegetables, home-made pasta ("tagliatelle" and "lasagne"), typical Tuscan soups ("ribollita" and pelt soup) and dishes with the ancient flavour of the purest saffron of San Gimignano. Every day we create a different menu, totally natural and wholesome.
All is matched with our D.O.C.G. wines: the traditional and stately VERNACCIA DI SAN GIMIGNANO and the CHIANTI COLLI SENESI, and, as dessert, a good glass of "VIN SANTO with cantucci " and the GRAPPA made with Vernaccia marc. |
