Sapori d'Italia
Welcome to Tuscany
Sapori was not created with the intention to be "just" an Italian market. Its purpose is to serve as a portal from Cape Cod to the boot, to invite like-minded enthusiasts to share their passion, and to create an Italian community within our island. In order to fulfill this aspiration, we offer to our customers and friends not only the entrace to this portal, but also the exit: in Tuscany.
Keeping in the Italian style, Sapori is connected via family to several agriturismi in Tuscany. While the mother half of the mother-daughter team keeps things going on the Cape, the daughter half invites everyone to live the full experience in Tuscany on her and her husband’s farm, San Ottaviano. Hilary and Francesco also organize private trips to Tuscany, where guests stay in their 25 apartment agriturismo.
The Agriturismi
San Ottaviano - Here, you will find Hilary and her husband, Francesco, owners of the agriturismo and brewery. Located in the comune of Monterotondo Marittimo, San Ottaviano is the perfect base for your trip to Tuscany and offers the opportunity to experience the real Tuscan country lifestyle. Adhering to the true nature of an agriturismo, San Ottaviano is also a farm. There are endless hiking trails, two pools with panoramic views, a restaurant located in the old oil mill complete with vaulted brick ceilings, and the brewery where La Birra de'Neri is made using the farm’s own barley.
Getting married? Why not do it in Tuscany!

Relais Poggio ai Santi - Here, you will find Francesca and Giulio, mother and brother of Francesco. Close to the sea, Poggio ai Santi follows this motto:
Harmony, a love for beautiful things, and quality. This is the trilogy of Poggio ai Santi. The suites and apartments of Poggio ai Santi are furnished with natural materials and colour schemes to match the Tuscan hills and the omnipresent sea. They combine space, light and tradition. At Poggio ai Santi, you will rediscover the joy of opening a garden door, of breathing the wonderful fragrances of maritime pine trees and lavender or rosemary. A few steps away, you can see horses and donkeys wandering freely in the park. The splendid panorama of natural countryside stretching to the coast - 5 kilometers below - will keep our guests enthusiastic, along with the Isle of Elba and Corsica standing out against the blue of the sky and that of the sea
