At least twice per week, guests at the nearby Hotel ADLER THERMAE in Bagno Vignoni have the opportunity to visit our winegrowing estate on special guided food & wine tours, and to sample our Aetos wines: on Tuesdays this forms part (indeed it is the destination) of the guided walk with Christine, and on Saturdays it takes place in the company of the hotel’s head waiters, who themselves are genuine wine lovers and experts.

The maîtres d’hôtel, Raffaele and Manfredo, visit us every Saturday morning at 10 a.m. with their guests. After a short but scenic journey with the ADLER shuttle bus, they arrive at our estate where guests can enjoy breathtaking views of the Val d’Orcia’s rolling hills. After taking a few sensational photos as souvenirs, they are invited on a tour of the vineyard and the new, highly innovative winery.

This allows them to observe the various highly professional steps involved in winemaking and afterwards they can, of course, sample our Aetos wines in order to learn, under expert guidance, all about the visual, olfactory and taste-related characteristics of the different products. Following the tour, a typical selection of Tuscan antipasti is served in a relaxed atmosphere on the wonderful panoramic terrace, before a gentle walk back down through the vines to the hotel around noon.

For us it is always a special pleasure to welcome Raffaele and Manfredo with their guests, as the way in which they communicate their expertise and passion is truly impressive and inspiring. Visiting the Tenuta Sanoner estate with the hotel’s head waiters is therefore a unique and exclusive way of experiencing both nature and wine for guests of the ADLER THERMAE.
