wines by the glass- price on bottle
One of my regular places for a light lunch or snack is Gianni Migliorini’s Casa del Vino.
Located behind the open air market onVia dell’Ariento.
It is a place where, if you can get it,you eat and drink elbow to elbow with the locals and if you go often enough you become one of the locals!
Gianni has one of the best wine cellars in Florence. His dad, Bruno, opened the shop after the war.
Gianni still sells the families wine and olive oil, made in Tavernelle,but,if you love great wines at fabulous prices,bring an empty suitcase to Florence!
On my wine tours, I help clients chose wines from Gianni,as well as eating and drinking our way through town.
Life’s tough here in Tuscany!
Stop by for a pick-me -up at the Casa del Vino.
They make incredible custom sandwiches as well as carrying some already made or small crostini, Tuscan toasts, with toppings.
Never drink without eating!

Oh this looks like my kind of place! I typically avoid that area of Florence, but clearly I do so at my own peril. Great photos — you really feel the atmosphere of the place looking at your photos. Thanks for sharing!

I adore the San Lorenzo Market.
