The characters are all local to give a touch of identity to a restaurant where everything speaks Tuscan: panorama of the Orcia vineyards and the medieval village of Trequanda, the wines of the two cellars belonging to Donatella Cinelli Colombini, the collection of ancient copper objects, the traditional dishes …

ALFREDO BIAGI, DORIANA MARCHI AND PATRIZIA GUERRI

 

The AIS Sommelier Alfredo Biagi is the director of the restaurant hall and above all of the wine  service, these he presents with great narrative ability. In fact, they are Brunello and Rosso di Montalcino, Orcia, Chianti Supertuscan, classic Spumante …. products from the cellars of Casato Prime Donne and Fattoria del Colle, the absolute protagonists of the restaurant.

Alfredo Biagi is from Chianciano Terme where his family arrived at the end of the 19th century and experienced the golden age of the thermal spa. His grandfather opened the first wine shop in Chianciano and his family managed hotels and restaurants. He himself directed, for many years, Villa Nottola in Montepulciano. Next to him the young Giulia Finetti.

FATTORIA DEL COLLE RESTAURANT

It is a “wine” restaurant because it overlooks the vineyards, bases its menu on tradition and  the great wines by Donatella Cinelli Colombini and it has two AIS Sommeliers

Today and tomorrow, I will present to you the protagonists and the new recipes of the Fattoria del Colle Restaurant in Trequanda, in the most intact and panoramic Tuscan countryside. The restaurant is actually made up of two restaurants: the recently restored barn as a hall for banquets, conferences and parties, and the gourmet restaurant, which has existed since 1998. The latter is inside the hamlet where the farmers used to live and where today there are rooms and apartments for tourists. The restaurant is housed in the old ox stables and pigsty, although now, with the floral decorations on the walls and refined furnishings, it seems difficult to believe.

In summer, the internal rooms extend outwards into the terrace and romantic grove illuminated with small suspended light bulbs as in ancient peasant feasts. The grove and terrace above the cellar are in great demand for weddings and allow each couple to create a very personalized wedding party unlike any other. Every detail is thought out with care, even the lighting of the grove is designed by Philip Robinson – the English set designer of famous films such as “Four weddings and a funeral”.

In the menu of the Fattoria del Colle Restaurant we find the same mix of tradition, accuracy and creativity.
