Formaggioteca Terroir

Formaggioteca Terroir is an absolute hidden gem in Florence. It’s close enough to the main tourist areas for convenience but tucked away just enough to feel like a local secret. What sets this place apart is their dedication to quality over quantity—every cheese and wine selection is carefully curated for an exceptional tasting experience. Our server, an outstanding sommelier, took the time to listen to our preferences and recommended the perfect bottle of wine to accompany our cheeses. We also entrusted her with selecting the cheeses, and she crafted a beautiful balance—some choices were within our comfort zone, while others expanded our palate in the best way. Each bite and sip felt intentional, showcasing the richness of Italian flavors and traditions. If you’re in Florence and appreciate fine cheese and wine, this spot is an absolute must-visit. Highly recommended!

I had an incredible experience at Formaggioteca Terroir! The cheese tasting and wine selection were outstanding, with perfectly curated pairings that showcased amazing flavors. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, making it a delightful place to relax and indulge. A special thanks to the staff member who assisted me—they were extremely professional, knowledgeable, and made excellent recommendations that truly elevated the experience. If you’re a cheese and wine lover, this spot is an absolute must-visit!

Seems like a very touristy destination but I enjoyed my experience. I didn’t say much on my preferences because my brain was a bit fried from sun and walking so much. But they nailed exactly what I wanted, only knowing I wanted to pair with a medium body Italian red. Mix of both Italian and French cheeses for €13 and with a very generous serving IMO. Added on the peach spread and it was absolutely my favorite. Skip the bread, it was a bit meh. Drink more wine and maybe see if they can give you more fruit. 🍎

Quaint wine and cheese bar. Owner featured on "Fixer to Fabulour - Italy". We had the wine from their farm. Waiter paired it with four cheeses and onion salsa - terrific experience!

2nd time was a charm. I can once in the past and was really disappointed with the service. Now 2 years later it was much better. We had a really great experience and had some amazing cheeses. Will be back!

Excellent place! They are very knowledgeable about wine and have super unusual cheese. I am gluten free to they also took time to check everything for me.

Just wonderful! We had a selection of 3 cheeses - fresh, medium, and old, plus a few glasses of wine. The staff were super friendly and recommended great wines. They were able to understand our request for a mineralic wine and a fruity wine. The vibe is very relaxed and the bathroom is clean and spacious. We had a lovely break there and would gladly come back.

Amazing cheese and wine selection. We had a selection of 3 Italian cheeses; soft goat, pecorino and a blue. All were excellent, as was the wine.
