Osteria di Passignano

Osteria di Passignano Review

In an ancient wine cellar owned by the Antinori family—who also happen to own much of what you see in these parts—is a sophisticated restaurant ably run by chef Marcello Crini and his attentive staff. The menu changes seasonally; traditional Tuscan cuisine is given a delightful twist through the use of unexpected herbs. Particularly tantalizing is the filetto di vitello alle spezie (spiced veal fillet), served with roast tomatoes and beans flavored with sage. The extensive wine list includes local vintages as well as numerous international labels. Daylong cooking courses are also available.
