Pasta at Pieve Aldina,
Icon of Italian cuisine
In the collective imagination, Italy is as much to be savored as it is to be visited. Fresh pasta holds a very special place. It embodies an ancestral know-how, handed down from generation to generation and deeply rooted in the culinary identity of each region.
From pasta alla carbonara in Rome to orecchiette in Puglia and the typical pici of Tuscany, each variety tells a story, a terroir, a culture. In Tuscany, a land of character, pasta is often rustic, hand-made, and accompanied by simple sauces featuring produce from the garden or market: fresh herbs, heirloom tomatoes, local olive oil or aged pecorino.
Immersion in the Tuscan art of living
Taking part in a pasta-making workshop in Tuscany means getting back in touch with the simple gestures of everyday Italian life. It's also a way of giving meaning back to what you're tasting, by understanding where the ingredients come from, and how to transform and sublimate them.
At Pieve Aldina, the Pasta Masterclass is an opportunity to discover this living heritage in an inspiring setting, in the heart of the rolling Chianti Classico countryside. Each stage of the workshop is a celebration of the Italian slow life, an invitation to slow down, create and, above all, share around a large table.
