Marvelous cuisine in southern Tuscany.

Castello di Fighine is  an imposing 11th century castle remodeled into a private home over the past 15 years. A two minute walk from the Castle brings you to the restaurant. Sitting 650 meters above sea level, the Castle is worth a visit even for its panoramic views over Southern Tuscany alone. Managed by Heinz Beck with Gianluca Renzi as head chef, the restaurant serves Mediterranean cuisine and features home-made Tuscan pasta with locally sourced ingredients.

Inside the restaurant is handsomely furnished., but outside under the large wisteria covered pergola is a most beautiful place to sit and enjoy either a simple plate of fresh pasta or a gourmet/tasting menu.  The wine list features a number of the spectacular Super Tuscan wines beside the many locally produced wines of excellent quality.
