It was awesome experience. fabrizio was very accomodating. Lunch was simple and memorable. Fifty year wine was great and we enjoyed it on our cruise. We drove there in the mountains and it was well worth it. It was the highlight of our Italian trip and cruise! More

These guys were awesome! When we asked them if they might have Styrofoam containers to hold wine to take back to the United States, we were offered as many containers as we could want for free! These containers allowed us to bring back 6 bottles of wine back home as luggage safely. They also gave us samples of 40 year... More

Excellent wine, beautiful winery, and nice people made for a great day in Chianti. We drove from the Regello area to Monterinaldi for a wine tasting paired with a lunch. It was easy to find between Radda and Panzano. Fabrizio does a perfect job of hosting. The lunch was just my wife and I in a beautiful dining room of... More

Fabrizio was the best tour guide!! He is an asset to the winery and really cares about the place that he works. He was very informed and friendly, answering questions and walking us around the property. I would highly recommend this place, compared to other wineries in the area. Family with two parents and adult child had a great time... More

My wife and I visited Castello di Monterinaldi in October 2011 as part of an all day tour of Tuscany. The winery was a great size, not too small where there was little variety, nor too big where it felt like a tourist trip. Our guide for the winery, Fabricio, was a fantastic tour guide who seemed very willing to... More

Primary driver in stopping here was the consistently rave reviews on T/A. Fabrizio lived up to all of the high expectations...ironically, by being so low key and sincere. We started with a tour of the property and the wine facilities. We finished with a tasting consisting of 4 or 5 high quality, reasonably priced wines. In addition to the wine,... More

What a wonderful day we had visiting the area around Radda in Chianti. Beautiful, sunny, and everything you would imagine for a day in Tuscany. This was all made so much more special by our visit to Castello di Monterinaldi and the wonderful tour and wine tasting by Fabrizio. I had read all the reviews here, which made us decide... More

Thanks! Thanks! Thanks for the good words. The wine tasting has to be always a moment of slow time to enjoy something which is the symbol of a "countryside slow life", so, we always try, when possible, to dedicate enough time to our guests. More

We enjoyed our entire week in Florence, Italy, but the best day by far was the day we visited Castello di Monterinaldi. Fabrizio was the best tour guide, very patient with all of our questions. The tour was followed by the wine tasting and a fabulous 4 course lunch. We were fortunate to be there the day after the olive... More

Three couples went on a private tour of this vineyard. Fabrizio was an extraordinary guide - exceptionally knowledgable about all aspects of winemaking. We scheduled a wine tasting with lunch and were pleasantly surprised! We tasted six different wines and had an unbelievable lunch - anti pasta, pasta, beef and dessert. Lunch with wine tasting for 15 Euro per person.... More
