Cannavacciuolo Vineyard

Antonino Cannavacciuolo, one of Italy's more recognizable chef personalities, has planted his flag in a quietly beautiful corner of Tuscany, inside a restored borgo where the dining room opens onto an actual working kitchen you can watch. The food is contemporary Italian with a formal spine, precise without feeling surgical, which is an achievement. It holds a Michelin star, and the service has the kind of unhurried confidence that comes from people who've worked elsewhere.
