THE TASTE OF THE EARTH The restaurant of The Parrina It's a temple of local gastronomy, where the authentic flavors of the Maremma become haute cuisine. From the aroma of handmade tortelli to tonnarelli reminiscent of the Argentario sea, from premium meats like Maremma wagyu to vegetables harvested from the organic garden, every dish is an ode to local biodiversity. Fresh fish from nearby ports and light fruit sorbets complete a sensory journey that finds its most noble companion in the house wines.
WINES AS WORKS OF ART Very few Italian wineries can boast their own DOC like that of Parrina, recognised in 1971. It is here, between the lagoon of Orbetello and Argentario, where the sea shapes the wines: the salty breeze provides freshness and minerality, the ancient soils provide structure and complexity. Among the iconic labels, the Muraccio Parrina DOC, a harmonious blend of Sangiovese and Cabernet Sauvignon with an intense character, and the Vermentino Parrina DOC, which exudes Mediterranean light and refined citrus notes. Native and international grape varieties blend in interpretations of absolute elegance. Every sip is a sensory journey: aromas of Mediterranean scrub, mineral notes echoing the sea, nuances that speak of sun and wind. Wines that are not simply to be drunk, but collected like works of art, because they are as unique and unrepeatable as the sunsets that color the horizon.Argentario.
A DIFFERENT LUXURY At La Parrina, luxury needs no ostentation. It lives in the sunsets that light up the vineyards, in horseback rides among the centuries-old olive trees, and on the cycle paths that skirt the woods.

Those who choose La Parrina aren't simply looking for a stay, but the experience of a place that captures the true essence of Tuscany's most secret corners: a haven of excellence, suspended between vineyards, sea, and tradition.
