Tuscan flavours
In Cortona the table is a way of being in the world: Chianina beef, hand-rolled pici with aglione, the Syrah grown on the hills around the hotel. At aperitivo time, from the terrace, the Valdichiana lights up and every taste becomes part of the landscape. Here we gather the dishes, wines and flavours that make the Tuscan table a reason to travel.
