A Bespoke In-Villa Wine Experience, Designed Around You

The Private Cellar was designed for guests who want wine to be part of the stay, not an addition to it. It is an experience that begins the moment your booking is confirmed and stays with you until the last glass — shaped around your tastes, built around your moments, and brought entirely into the privacy of your villa.

What sets it apart

  • Each wine chosen with intention, not simply selected
  • Access to niche producers rarely found in traditional tastings
  • No schedules, no wine tours — the experience comes to you
  • Designed to unfold naturally throughout your stay

How Your Private Wine Experience Unfolds

Before Your Arrival

From the moment your booking is confirmed, a wine specialist works with you to understand your tastes, the occasions you have in mind, and the kind of stay you are hoping for.

From The Moment You Arrive

You arrive at a villa already prepared. Every bottle is selected, sourced, and in place. There is nothing to arrange. The experience is ready to begin on your own terms.

During Your Stay

At a point of your choosing, a sommelier joins you at the villa, exploring the wines selected for you, the producers behind them, and the stories that make each bottle worth opening.

 PLAN YOUR WINE EXPERIENCE 

Tailored to your villa, your taste, and your stay.


“Each wine is thoughtfully selected and integrated into your stay — with expert guidance and access to producers that few ever find on their own.”

Where the Experience Begins: Tenute Poggiazzi

Set in the heart of Tuscany, Tenute Poggiazzi is the first villa to offer The Private Cellar experience. The villa’s manager, Angelo Caniggia, comes from a prominent Chianti winemaking family and brings that knowledge directly into every stay. 

At the heart of the property sits a 500-year-old wine cellar, stocked with the estate’s own wines alongside a carefully chosen selection from Chianti, Montalcino, and beyond, creating an ideal setting for a private wine experience in Tuscany where the connection between place, producer, and palate is brought directly into the villa. 

The Private Cellar will be introduced across further villas in Tuscany and Italy, each selected for its connection to wine, landscape, and local expertise.

Faqs

1. Is The Private Cellar available at all Tuscany Now & More villas?

The Private Cellar is currently available at a selection of villas across Tuscany. It will be introduced across further properties in the coming months — each selected for its own connection to wine and place.

2. Do I need to visit a winery to experience Tuscany's best wines?

Not with The Private Cellar. Rather than planning winery visits or wine tasting tours in Tuscany, this experience brings the wines — and the expertise behind them — directly to your villa. Everything is curated and delivered before you arrive.

3. How far in advance should I book?

We recommend arranging The Private Cellar at least one month before your stay — ideally at the time of your villa booking — to allow enough time for the pre-arrival consultation and wine curation.

4.Can I request specific wines or producers?

Yes, the pre-arrival consultation is your opportunity to share any preferences, favourite regions, or producers you'd like to explore. The selection is built entirely around you.
