We grabbed a bottle of wine on a warmer June afternoon after a day of exploring, which was definitely refreshing. The location isn't much as it overlooks a pretty bare piazza. The service can be a bit on the slower side, especially when I walked in and tried to get the bill. But still if you're able to get a table it's a pretty quaint wine bar. It seemed like they had some flights/tastings, which would have been an interesting option.

Title: Great wine selection, but disappointing service from our server Noemi…read moreWe visited Enoteca Pitti Gola because it was recommended by Wine Spectator, and the wine list truly is impressive -- an extensive and well-curated selection of Italian wines. We were two couples and went for some wine and light snacks. When we arrived, there wasn't a table available for four, so we had to sit separately. Once a table behind our friends became available, we asked to move so we could sit closer together, but our server, Noemi, wasn't very accommodating and seemed somewhat annoyed by the request. We mentioned that we wanted to share a few dishes and asked about portion sizes, but Noemi didn't explain things clearly and wasn't very friendly. She insisted the plates weren't meant for sharing, which turned out not to be true. The wine itself was excellent, and the snacks were good -- but the overall service from Noemi felt unfriendly and not very customer-oriented. I'd still recommend the place if you're interested in trying great Italian wines, but be aware that the service experience may not match the quality of the wine.

The outside signs are all about the wine tasting and that was something I was not interested in. None of my group was actually into that either but they didn't want to wait to sit at the place we meant to go and this place had availability at that moment. We sat at the large wine barrel table at the front door because there were 4 of us and I felt a way since I was told to make sure not to block other guests. Then why put us here? I'm getting even more mad. Thankfully, I was completely wrong. Once we sat and one of the lovely sisters came to speak with us, I knew this was going to be a good time. They both were so gracious and knowledgeable, but also friendly and super funny. We didn't get the wine tasting but I heard them giving the people behind us one and I actually think I would have enjoyed it as well. The cocktails we did get were strong and delicious. With hosts like these, I'd come back here all the time.

After purchasing a few bottles at "enotecas", I found this place. Aesthetically, not much but the service and prices dropped my jaw! The abridged version... I left with 3 bottles. A belghori, Chardonnay, and a vermentino. None of these wines will ever be on Wine Spectators top 100 but if you are ordering "vino Della casa" while in Florence, you will be getting much better wines at a MUCH better price at Il Santo Vino. These have been our table wines for lunch and dinner at our apartment and have impressed me enough to go back and purchase more! I could go on but if you are in Florence for an extended time, be like a local and treat yourself to a hidden gem! Salute!

After having spent a month in Firenze, we found the selection of wines and the experience here to be our favorite, very unique and singular!

We came here for a wine tasting. The wine label name Ottomani is Italian for "8 hands" because 4 young fellows started this winery a couple decades ago. Their intent was to honor the old-time way of making chianti wines but to put a new twist on it by distilling the wine in non-traditional ways. Such as aging their sangiovese in terracotta cisterns or their chianti classico in cement vats (an ancient method). One of the owners gave us four tastings and provided a basic charcuterie plate. The casual, relaxed seating was outdoors on a beautiful day. The wines had a different taste than traditional wines from this region. I liked them all; they seemed to have a smoother taste. Not being a sommelier I can't properly describe what the exact difference was. I liked them well enough that I ordered some to be shipped home. Kudos to these guys for winemaking in their own way and breaking tradition.
