"I visited the Tenuta Torciano Winery, owned by Pierluigi Giachi, who is something of a legend in this part of the world. Visiting a winery is compulsory when driving in this part of Tuscany and Giachi’s is one of the best, as he will fly you around the area by helicopter. You will eat, drink and soar through the sky ... savouring a day being immersed in the world of Pierluigi, a world you’d be crazy to miss when you visit the area."

"The winery was founded in 1720 and has been in the Giachi family for 15 generations. Since he took over the business, Giachi has taken the company from producing 5,000 bottles of wine per year with five employees to producing more than 700,000 bottles of wine per year with 50 employees."

"Family is at the heart of the Tenuta Torciano Winery and it’s one of the reasons that the business is so successful. There are approximately 25 immediate family members who are employed by the winery and Giachi works in tandem with his wife (Luciana) and son (Emanuele). “Were it not for my relatives 15 generations ago taking it upon themselves to create this legacy, we would not be where we are today,” says Giachi. “It’s the fact that this winery is engrained in my family’s blood that drives my passion and desire to share our magical property and products with the world.”
