During high season we prepare fixed menu dinners. Il Maggese's kitchen offers typical farm dinners, family cooking with organic ingredients at Km 0, fresh vegetables from our garden, extra virgin olive oil and Senatore Cappelli durum wheat semolina pasta produced by our organic farm, and the best local products.
All meals are prepared and cooked especially for you with love.
For the dinners it is necessary to book at least one day in advance
Delicious breakfasts made with local products and homemade desserts to be enjoyed in the "Universal Room" or outdoors.
Breakfasts must be agreed at least one day before or, when possible, before the stay.
The timetable is as follows: from 8.30 a.m. to 10.30 a.m.
During the summer season at Maggese it is possible to eat outdoors. The tables are set in our garden to enjoy the morning freshness while having breakfast and the suggestive sunsets during dinners.
When it is not possible to eat outside, the tables are prepared in the "Universal Room".
The "Universal Room" is housed in the renovated building where, only 50 years ago, grapes were pressed and tools were stored.
It is called "Universal" due to the large print of "The Last Judgement" hanging on the wall. It is located near the swimming pool and is always available to guests.
Those staying at the Maggese can get to know more closely the activities of the organic farm Ferranti Flavia which, following the rhythms and cycles of nature, produces organic and high quality food.
We produce PGI extra virgin olive oil, organic pasta from Senatore Cappelli durum wheat semolina, wine and vinsanto.
We are an agricultural company that carefully fits into our territory. It is a territory of Etruscan origins that has been dedicated to the production of oil and wine since ancient times.
Extra virgin olive oil is produced from the 1500 olive trees of the organic farm Ferranti Flavia.
"Il Maggese" organic Tuscan extra virgin olive oil IGP is cold pressed.
Our cultivars are Frantoio, Leccino and little Moraiolo for a soft and fruity flavor.

Thanks to its high digestibility and quality, Il Maggese oil is particularly suitable for flavoring and enhancing the most varied dishes, whether they are based on meat, fish, soups or simple vegetables.
Don't miss the tasting on bruschetta!
We produce tagliatelle and paccheri with a semi-wholemeal granulated semolina, which nourishes more completely thanks to the higher content of fibers, polyphenols, wheat germ and vitamins.
The semolina pasta is obtained from the variety of Tuscan origin "Cappelli" characterized by a high digestibility having never undergone genetic alterations from modern agriculture.
The wheat is ground by Molino Silvestri. During processing it is never heated, so it keeps the organoleptic properties of the semolina unaltered.
All of our pasta is produced in the Fabbri Artisan Pastificio.
Pasta making and drying take place below 38 ° Celsius, giving our pasta an extraordinary ability to absorb sauces.
The generous organic garden produces vegetables with a very low environmental impact.
Seasonal vegetables at km0 are available to customers by filling the baskets for our guests with flavors, colors and aromas.
They are also the basis of all our preparations in the kitchen.
