Reviews
Where to begin.
First of all we mistook our reservation and arrived a day early for our tour experience of the castle. However, Roberto went out of his way to find a place for us. He was an excellent pleasant guide of the castle and very knowledgeable on the topic and answered every question.
The castle and vineyards were breathtaking in the heart of Chianti, along with the garden, cellars and the very friendly English speaking staff.
The food was fantastic, alongside the amazing wines that we got to taste.
All in all, a 5/5 experience and would totally recommend visiting!
Wine tour and tasting were amazing! Ricardo and Lawrence were amazing hosts! Highly recommend this winery!
This was a busy place but Lorenzo really took the time to show it all. We saw the Vinyard, the cellars and the gardens. All splendidly arranged. Lunch was light and focus was really on the 4 wines they served. All subtle and explained with passion. And I should not forget about the olive oil. Amazing! Overall a 3h30 journey in the world of Albola. Totally worth it. Well done to you All
We had a wine tasting and a lunch this place. Both the vinery and the food was a spectacular experience. The wines with the tour were super and the food was incredible as well, after the lunch we had the opportunity to walk around the place and have an exciting view of the tuscan landscape.
We stopped for a wine tasting. It seems they accept bookings for it but they were kind enough to offer the tasting for our walk-in visit, too. The regular tasting is 10 euros with 4 different wines but it’s possible to upgrade to premium tasting for 20 euros.
They were extremely knowledgeable on their wines and production. We left the castle with a lot of wines but also some very informative answers to our questions.
The castle has an impeccable view of a valley full of vineyards, so it’s a great place to take some break and watch the nature as well.
We enjoyed our experience at Albola, we booked in advance a degustation menu wich included 4 plates and the wine pairing. Everything was well organized by the sommeliers wich were very professional. The cellars and vineyards tour was something that they organized for us afer the lunch because we were late to catch the morning tour. The staff was great and offered an excellent service. The view is 10/10 it gives you a taste of toscany in every aspect. I recommend it for a romantic gateway, we will come back for sure.
After an wine tasting experience, ABSOLUTELY A MUST DO!
In short:
Available team since the booking process.
Stunning property, the landscape is breathtaking.
Welcoming team, exiting and instructive guided tour with perfect timing ( Lorenzo was amazing).
From a sommelier perspective, excellent wines!
All four ( included in my experience) well paired with traditional Tuscan different dishes , served into an relaxed and beautiful open space area in the heart of an old " Borgo".... wow.
Great wines and service at two tasting levels: 10 euro for standard and 20 euro for premium wines. Good commentary. Beautiful grounds to explore as well.
