Description
Tenuta Sovestro is a magical place, where the charm of the farmhouse and history blend with the convenience of technological rooms equipped with every comfort.

We are located in the heart of Chianti halfway between Siena and Florence, a stone's throw from San Gimignano, Monteriggioni, Volterra, Certaldo.

The 16 rooms (all equipped with air conditioning and wi-fi) were built in a stone farmhouse from the 1700s surrounded by our vineyards and olive groves.

The historic center of San Gimignano is less than 2 km away and can also be reached with a 30-minute walk on the historic "Via Vecchia per San Gimignano".

At guests' disposal 2 swimming pools, a gym and the Da Pode restaurant which are located about 70m away.

Rates include the buffet breakfast which is served at the restaurant that our family has managed for more than 40 years.

The rooms are part of a farm with approximately 6 hectares of vineyards and 2 hectares of olive groves.

At the estate it is possible to taste our wines and purchase our products.

Breakfast
Our breakfast is served in our restaurant Da Pode, at about 60 mt from the Tenuta The buffet offers both sweet and savory options, with jams, yogurt, fresh fruit as well as homemade cakes and local products. It is possible to enjoy a nice and relaxing breakfast both inside the restaurant and outside, on the terrace overlooking the surrounding hills.
Restaurant
The restaurant "Da Pode" was established in 1985 in a farmhouse that still maintains the typical characteristics of the Sienese countryside structures. The family-style management is the main focus that characterizes the friendliness of the approach towards customers.

Under the skillful direction of Mrs. LUCIA (assisted by her competent staff), the kitchen offers the best of itself by proposing typical dishes of the Tuscan tradition, revisited in a polite manner without straying from the flavors of the past.

The appetizers can vary from a mix of local cold cuts to all types of bruschetta, fresh salads and crostini, up to more sophisticated dishes such as pheasant or chianina terrine garnished with onion jam, without neglecting any other expressed desire.

Among the first courses, homemade pasta, gnocchi, ravioli or other dishes are highly valued and are expertly combined with wild boar ragout, mushrooms, truffles or saffron. Even the poor Tuscan cuisine is present at certain times with farro soup, ribollita, or even pasta with chickpeas.

For the main courses, the classic Florentine steak cannot be missed, carefully provided by our trusted butcher. Grilled free-range chicken, steak with truffle, and meat carpaccio represent the daily menu.

For those who love the flavors of the past and to keep faith with what has now become our tradition, we propose tripe (expertly prepared in the old earthenware pot), Livorno style codfish or chicken stew in our own way.

In the autumn period, porcini mushrooms find their maximum appreciation treated in every way.

The wine selection is not to be outdone: fully up to what is expected to be found in a geographical area whose winemaking vocation is a source of national pride, starting from our production of Chianti Colli Senesi and Vernaccia di San Gimignano "Tenuta Sovestro".

And to dress it all up, our excellent extra virgin olive oil, obtained by cold pressing.

The Failli family, dedicated for over 30 years to hospitality and restaurant business, wanted to broaden their horizons by buying in 2017 Fattoria Sovestro, that after a careful renovation was called Tenuta Sovestro and starting from June 2021 is ready to welcome you in its rooms with private bathroom, and where you can find the direct sale of the products of the farm, such as wine and olive oil. The mermbers of the Failli family have entrusted the management to the two daughters Alessia and Barbara, who are ready to carry on this new phase of the familiar business, always with the same passion.
