Unfortunately, the beautiful days spent in the sun on the beautiful island of Cavallo are over for this year.

Every year, Villa Tolomei prepares itself for the awaited time of the grape harvest; a tradition which for our estate reflects the strong link with the fruits and the beauty of Tuscany.\u00a0The grapes from our vineyards, perfect in every phase of growth until the time of maturation, are harvested with the respect for tradition and the environment.
