Un menu con ortaggi e frutti del loro orto. La particolarità sono i piatti con ingredienti fermentati che assumono sapori nuovi rispetto alla comune cottura.
Da non accompagnare il menu con la degustazione vini perché alcuni dei bicchieri serviti sono bevande alcoliche fermentate (non da uve) molto lontane dal sapore del vino.

A menu with vegetables and fruits from their garden. The peculiarity are the dishes with fermented ingredients that take on new flavors compared to common cooking.
Do not accompany the menu with wine tasting because some of the glasses served are fermented alcoholic drinks (not from grapes) very far from the flavor of wine.

Eines der besten Menüs, dass ich jemals gegessen habe. Wir haben das 8-Gänge-Menü mit Getränkebegleitung bestellt. Man wird sehr herzlich empfangen und nimmt in einem liebevoll eingerichteten Gastraum Platz. Vom Amuse-Gueule an über alle innovativ zusammengestellten Gänge bis zum süßen Abschluss waren wir mehr als begeistert. Man verwendet hier ausschließlich Zutaten des eigenen Hofs - nicht nur das Obst und Gemüse ist aus eigenem Anbau - sogar der Käse stammt von eigenen Kühen und der Schinken von den Schweinen der eigenen Zucht. Die Küche weiß diese Zutaten perfekt zu inszenieren und zu kombinieren. Anrichteweise und Zubereitungsmethoden waren stets frisch und smart zugleich. Die Getränkebegleitung besteht aus einem Mix aus eigenem Wein und selbst hergestellten Kombucha-Säften, welche stets einen Bezug zur Speise haben. Alles in allem ein unvergessliches kulinarisches Erlebnis, an welches ich mich noch lange sehr positiv erinnern werde. Wer in der Nähe von Sassetta unterwegs ist, muss hier unbedingt einen Abend genießen!

One of the best meals I've ever eaten. We ordered the 8-course menu with drinks. You receive a very warm welcome and take a seat in a lovingly furnished guest room. From the amuse gueule through all the innovatively put together courses to the sweet conclusion, we were more than thrilled. They only use ingredients from their own farm - not only are the fruit and vegetables grown in-house - even the cheese comes from their own cows and the ham comes from their own farmed pigs. The kitchen knows how to stage and combine these ingredients perfectly. The presentation and preparation methods were always fresh and smart at the same time. The beverage accompaniment consists of a mix of our own wine and home-made kombucha juices, which always have a connection to the food. All in all, an unforgettable culinary experience that I will remember very positively for a long time. Anyone traveling near Sassetta must definitely enjoy an evening here!

Attirati dal concept di azienda biodinamica proviamo questo ristorante tra i monti di Bolgheri. La location è meravigliosa e la gestione familiare ed amichevole, tuttavia la cucina non è stata al livello. Il menu è davvero scarno, con 2 proposte per gli antipasti, per primi e per i secondi. Giustificabile se proponi dei piatti impeccabili, ma purtroppo non è stato cosi. Tendenzialmente tutti i piatti avevano grosse pecche, o troppo insipidi o troppo salati. Peccato!

Attracted by the concept of a biodynamic company, we try this restaurant in the Bolgheri mountains. The location is wonderful and the management is familiar and friendly, however the cuisine was not up to standard. The menu is really sparse, with 2 proposals for starters, first courses and second courses. Justifiable if you offer impeccable dishes, but unfortunately this was not the case. All the dishes tended to have major flaws, either too bland or too salty. Sin!
