The name means the old riding school — and the horses are still here, grazing between the vines as you arrive, the golden light of a May evening catching the hills and cypress trees behind them. This is the Tuscan countryside of the films and the paintings, alive and breathing, and tonight it belongs to you.

Il Vecchio Maneggio is a working farm and agriturismo set among the vineyards between San Gimignano and the wider Chianti hills. The Farm-to-Table Celebration Dinner is the culmination of the entire tour — a long, joyful, generously Italian evening where everything on the table was grown or raised on this land. The wine is the farm's own. The olive oil was pressed last autumn. The pasta was rolled this morning.

This is the dinner you will talk about for years. Not because it is the most expensive — but because it will be the most real. The whole group together, the best of Tuscan food and wine, the horses in the fields outside and the towers of San Gimignano glowing on the horizon. This is what the whole tour has been building toward.
