Wine and music for Calici di Stelle at Fattoria del Colle
On August 10th Calici di Stelle with Brunello and Doc Orcia at Donatella Cinelli Colombini at Fattoria del Colle. Nocturnal itinerary with 4 musical resting spots dedicated to mystery, music, warmth and the sacredness of stars. Groups will be guided at 7pm and from 9,30pm – 10pm and 10,30 pm
The night time itinerary that celebrates the night of shooting stars and of great wines is an adventure rich in suggestions at Fattoria del Colle. Something unusual and involving, worthy of Donatella Cinelli Colombini who invented the Calici di Stelle event in 1997 and now invites guests to her 16th century estate in Southern Chianti.
Those wanting to can even eat them, the stars. The Osteria di Donatella of Fattoria del Colle proposes in fact during the same evening, a menù dedicated to planets, satellites and stars; Saturn, Venus, Sun, Moon …

Let’s look more closely at this (free) night-time adventure, offered by Donatella Cinelli Colombini in her estate with a tasting of 4 great wines “Rosa di tetto” IGT 2011, Doc Orcia “Cenerentola”, Brunello di Montalcino wine and Passito. Tours will start at 7pm and 9,30 pm and 10pm and 10,30 pm with a guide, to stop in 4 different spots, with music, tastings and different experiences.
Beginning in the woods where an amazing lighting effect created by the set designer Philip Robinson (from the film “Four weddings and a funeral”) accompanied by the mysteries of the dark. The next stop is in the swimming pool park where the theme is music and stars in the literal way. The sidereal rhythms will melt into “Le Clair de Lune” by Claude Debussy. At this point one has the best view in the sky.
After, comes the experience of the heat of the stars which takes place in the

wellness centre at Fattoria del Colle where the percussion amplifies the burning sensation. Last point dedicated to sacredness of the stars, in the wine cellar. Candle light and Mozart make the tasting of an exceptional Passito a solemn occasion, only 300 bottles are produced.
An evening rich in emotions and sensations. A wonderful frame for the Tuscan countryside with its breathtaking views have convinced Donatella to bring forward the time of the first tour to sunset, when it is still possible to admire the beautiful countryside and the first stars begin to appear.
