Wine tastings and cellar visits are available throughout the year and ‘Cantinetta San Jacopo’ (the farm shop) is open for visitors to purchase the estate’s wine and Extra Virgin Olive Oil. The wine cellars meander under Castello Vicchiomaggio and visitors can see here how the estate's world renowned wine is produced. All tours are, though, on request.
