Montalcino: Taverna del Grappolo Blu

Scale di Via Moglio, 1 , Phone: 0577.847.150

Closing day: Friday

Reviewed by: AndrewG from CA, review #3669

When: 2010

This was one of our favorites from our previous visit to Montalcino in 2005 and it did not disappoint.

We enjoyed both lunch and dinner here. Friendly service; wonderful, fresh pastas (pinci and porcinis to make you sigh), very good contorno like ceci (chick peas), and a fine local wine list. We still highly recommend dining with Luciano in his small and rustic kingdom when in Montalcino. Enjoyed a 2005 Il Poggioni Brunello with lunch and 2005 Lisini Brunello with dinner.
