We especially enjoyed our pasta making lesson with them, along with the wonderful meal that followed.
I really suggest to book the cooking classes and enjoy the dinners cooked by the owners, absolutely great food and wine.
Sign up for pizza making night and pasta making night. With wine and dessert both are so much fun and affordable.
What a amazing, special experience! Grazia was so welcoming, knowledgeable and enthusiastic.

Grazia's hand-rolled pasta cooking class in Tuscany was phenomenal. We learned how to make both a water-based and egg-based pasta dough.

Grazia was a wonderful host and teacher. We loved learning how to make different types of pasta and sauces -- all of which were absolutely delicious. We were a rather large group but she navigated it easily, encouraging both the children and the adults in the group and making sure everyone had a memorable experience -- both novice cooks and more seasoned ones as well. I highly recommend this class and plan to participate again when we come back to Tuscany in the future!
It was great! We had a lot of fun and learnd many knew things. They are amazing.🤗🥳🤩🍝🍷

My husband and I had the privilege of spending several hours with Grazia in her Tuscany kitchen. It was the highlight of our three week trip to Italy!! What made it so special was everything. To start the class was personalized to what we wanted to cook. The challenge was choosing from so many amazing options. The ingredients we used were fresh from her garden and mushrooms just picked from the forest. The setting of her home and the home itself were so picturesque, exactly what we were looking for but better. Grazia is charming and personable so the conversation while we cooked together was also an enjoyable part of the experience. She openly shared her knowledge of wine and cooking so we came away with many valuable tips. We ended our time together sitting outside in her beautiful garden eating the delicious food we had prepared and enjoying a glass of wine! We highly recommend this class. Don’t miss this unique Tuscany experience!!
Cooking with Grace in her home was a very special experience! She was very kind, patient and eager to share her knowledge, a great teacher. We learned so much about pasta and new techniques. The food was fantastic, We loved everything we made! We highly recommend a class with Grace!!
Absolutely the highlight of our trip to Tuscany! My husband and I loved the one on one cooking instruction and authentic recipes and atmosphere of the class. We learned so much and got to eat our homemade pasta after the class over a nice dinner with our host and her husband. It was hands down the best meal that we had during our time in Italy. Would highly recommend this class for amazing food and a wonderful Tuscan experience.
The course is absolutely educational and my sisters and I felt very comfortable thanks to the warm, patient and loving nature of Grazia and her husband. She explained everything to us very simply and yet in detail and the end result of our pasta was more than worth it. We are all really looking forward to making our homemade pasta at home and putting what we have learned into practice again. Best regards Sonja, Anina and Caroline
It's easy to understand why people say this cooking class is a highlight of their trip, and it definitely is a top highlight of our trip. Grazia is a superb chef and sommelier, amazing teacher, and just a lovely, lovely person. From start to finish, making your own hand-made pastas and sauces, to sitting down to a late lunch/supper and proudly enjoying our meal, with expertly-curated vino.
I searched a while for a pasta class that would let us choose the pasta we wanted to make and offered sunset sessions. Lucky we found this one! The host is personable and very skilled in Tuscan cuisine. Her property is peaceful and the dinner in the candle garden was a perfect ending. It felt like visiting family. We recommend the mushroom pasta and the guitar string pasta. Don’t forget to get the recipe so you can make at home later!
We loved our time with Grazia! She altered the menu to accommodate our requests so we were able to learn how to prepare some of our favorite dishes from the region. We were able to use the techniques we learned during our stay in Italy and at home. We especially appreciated the pace that allowed us to participate in and learn each step. We also enjoyed learning about the property and the region. The setting was beautiful. We highly recommend this experience.
Grazia was an exceptional host, chef and sommelier. Her and Oscar's house is very comfortable with a beautiful view. Grazia is very talented, but also patient and very sociable. I felt like I was with family. Their dog Amie only added to the comfort and entertainment. We took away new recipes, a great new wine, and a full belly.
It was the highlight of our trip to Tuscany. Grazia made the experience what it was, and the pasta she helped us cook was the best we've had. His property is amazing and the landscaping so beautiful. It was a fun and authentic experience. We can't wait to return one day!
We learned how to make two different pastas and two different sauces. Grazia makes it look easy and shared a lot of information with us so we can replicate the recipes at home. The farm house is a great location to learn about making authentic Italian pasta, Grazia is a very good teacher and the wine was not bad either. Overall the experience was great and I would recommend it to others that want to learn how to make paste in a small group at an authentic farm house kitchen.

This experience was the highlight of our trip! First, the grounds was so beautiful. Getting to see the garden and the BB and hearing how Grazia and her husband created this magical place over time was so special. Second, we LOVED learning and cooking with Grazia! We got to choose exactly what we wanted to make and got to be as hands on as we wanted! Grazia patiently guided us through making pumpkin ravioli and tagliatelle alla ragu! Every single step was fun and all four of us had roles to play. I am no cook but I was so engaged and excited and felt like a pro thanks to Grazia! She made it fun and easy. And the result??? PERFETTO! So so delicious! We stuffed our faces over local wine and more great conversation. We feel blessed to have experienced such an authentic meal and way of life. Thank you Grazia and Oscar! You are gems!!
Oscar and Grazia are wonderful people, they made our stay greater than what we expected, the Podere is beautiful, there are lovely pets, the special dinner, the brunch and the breakfast cooked by Grazia was perfect, a unique experience. We cant wait to go back again.
Fantastically authentic all around from the old renovated farmhouse to homecooked, organic food. You really feel in heart of Tuscany in setting and so welcome by owners. Excellent for short, long or day stay!
In a wonderful place, an authentic farm lived and looked after by Grazia and Oscar with elegance and balance. Refined hospitality, but never cloying, friendly and cheerful. Superlative cuisine and wines, happy animals and a relaxing and fragrant garden. Leaving is very difficult!
Beautiful farm surrounded by nature and super welcoming owners who are always available to give advice on places to visit. Absolutely recommended.
I can highly recommend the cooking class given in the houses own kitchen by Grazia herself. Its a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
