"I’m a passionate winemaker, always aspired to tale the story of my birthplace, Il Falconiere, to bring the Guests closer to Tuscan lifestyle I love most. More then 30 years ago I took the grand challenge to continue the century and half family work to produce high quality wines using both local and international grapes variety. Being the third generation of winemakers, I passed my love and passion for the territory to my son Benedetto who, along with one of the most famous Tuscan enologist, Stefano Chioccioli, is now in charge for the wine making process, maintenance, innovations and modernization of the vineyards and cellar. Join Benedetto and me for a walk through the story of Il Falconiere
and our vineyards; visit our cellar and our “ bollicineria” a jewel that keeps jealously my unique Metodo Classico. Signature tastings for serious wine collectors."
"The stylish and fun Baracchi Family, Riccardo and his wife Silvia, with their son Benedetto, own the sybaritic Relais and restaurant Il Falconiere. I was flattered when Silvia named her school Cooking Under The Tuscan Sun."
"Frances’ kind words has been and are now, after many years, one of the most important award I ever had for my passion in cooking. Passion for my land, its incredible richness in product, the deep culinary Tuscan tradition, an easy approach and a cozy typical local kitchen decreed the success of my Cooking Under the Tuscan sun courses.
