Our environment
We are in foothills of Volterra, an ancient Etruscan settlement. Without any doubt, it is one of the world’s most popular destinations – with its rich history. Tuscany exhibits a distinct and enduring way of life. Old time traditions mingle with the new ones and everybody visiting the Osteria Etrusca will have their choice of delectable homemade cuisine and world-class local wines.

There is no one Italian cuisine. Italian food culture is very regional. With a varied geography and an even more diverse history. Italian cuisine changes, depending on where you are. The province of Pisa is a privileged habitat for truffles! Their search and use in local gourmet restaurants have a long tradition. Here, the white truffle embodies rural and social micro-history.
Volterra is known for its truffles. Local village fairs and banquets celebrate the maturing of these tasty delicacies, which thrive under oak trees and poplars.

In the hilly Volterra, fairs and village banquets celebrate the maturing of these tasty funghi, which thrive under oak trees and poplars.
