Florence – Wine Bars- Casa del Vino

November 8, 2008 by Divina Cucina

 

 


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!

    Ciambella- this was my hood for 20 years!
    I adore the San Lorenzo Market.
    Where do you hang out?

Originally from California; Tuscany has been my home since 1984. I found the city of Florence to hold all my passions, food, wine, art all in one place. When I am not in Tuscany, I am often found in Sicily, my other favorite place to be. Always searching for recipes to share and exploring for the guides I write to my favorite cities for food and wine.
