Tenuta La Badiola

Picture
Tenuta La Badiola lies in the heart of the Tuscan Maremma, southwest Tuscany. It is located in a delightful natural setting of gently rolling hills carpeted in olive groves and vineyards. The view from the estate stretches to where the turquoise of the Mediterranean waves merge with the intense  blue of the Tuscan sky. 

Trattoria Toscana is a restaurant on the Badiola estate. It is the only Alain Ducasse restaurant in Italy. The estate is also home to a luxury hotel called L’Andana, and the property hosts a championship golf course and exclusive spa.
