"When Claudio Villani left InVino, he opened Altovino with the vision to combine seasonal regional Italian food with high-end Italian wines. As Claudio hails from Florence, you should expect the proper homage paid to Tuscany’s regional mascot: Sangiovese. Dusty earth, violet scented plum and cherry Sangio lovers can rejoice alongside a concise list of rosy bramble-like nebbiolo-based bottles from Piedmont and a varied mixed bag of reds and whites from quality, boutique producers from North to South. Come for a bistecca alla Fiorentina (Florentine porterhouse steak) and a bottle of Chianti or Brunello, or taste through other gems with the seasonal-driven pastas. It’s always a good idea to grab a seat in the bar area where a menu full of finger food (commonly known as stuzzichini) and antipasti is available for pairing." - Coral Sisk
