Once there was the metayage, the work organization system dividing the population: on one side the metayers, on the other the land-owners. Today the numerous village festivals and popular feasts keep alive the memory of this ancient rural world with its very old customs, renewing each year the tradition of past times.
The visitor will discover tastes and recipes that have been handing down for centuries drinking a glass of Nobile of Montepulciano, dressing the typical foods with the extra-virgin olive oil here produced, or tasting the pecorino cheese of Pienza.
Seasons and life rhythms were governed by the work in the fields, the vintage, the fruits’ picking. Why do not try again?
