About this tour
Spend an afternoon on a working Tuscan farm meeting Cinta Senese pigs raised in semi-natural conditions, then sit down to a three-course dinner showcasing the breed's meat. Roberto tends his herd with heritage grains and pasture-fed methods; you'll walk the vineyard and olive groves before meeting Ciro and his muddy companions. A 2.5-hour experience that connects animal husbandry to the plate, finishing with local wine and cantucci.

What to expect
Start with a guided walk across the property, observing how the pigs forage and interact in muddy enclosures. You'll learn Roberto's approach to selective breeding and heritage feed sourcing. The farm meal unfolds as a multi-course sit-down dinner: cured meats and local cheeses, fresh ribbon pasta dressed in slow-cooked pork sauce, then a tender fillet with cream and spice. Wine flows throughout. The pace is leisurely—expect two to three hours total, with time to photograph the animals and absorb the rural Tuscan setting.
