At Pieve Aldina, different moments of the day take place in different settings. Italian gastronomy is showcased in a variety of settings, from a traditional enoteca and bistro to large tables surrounded by olive groves and vineyards... Chef Niccolo Pini's cuisine is inspired by the humble, tasty roots of Tuscany.
Florentine Chef Niccolò Pini revisits the ancient culinary traditions of Tuscan cuisine, including Panzanella Tradizionale, the famous fresh Pici, the delicious local fresh pasta, not to mention Fiorentina di Chianina, Florentine beef, all seasoned with the best Chianti wines.
Every day the Chef is inspired by the Tuscan territory and what it offers him best: truffles, seasonal vegetables, wild herbs, game...
Immerse yourself in the Italy of the 50s at a traditional enoteca. At any hour of the day, you'll be able to pick up a gourmet selection of local wines, cheeses and cured meats - a glass of Brunello di Montalcino to sanctify a salami with fennel seeds or an aromatic pecorino with herbs.
You can also sit down at the mamma's table d'hôtes to sample her freshly-made pici and gnocchi, as well as her marvellous almond cookies, to be enjoyed with a glass of Santo, a sweet local wine.
Spritz and prosecco, the spirit of the Italian aperitif, are served in the parish priest's garden in fine weather, and in the enoteca in winter.
