The Locanda del Glicine was born from a wish of harmony, from
a search for an atmosphere suspended in the enchantment among
history, nature and the culture of pleasure of the table, right
in accordance with that kind of harmony wich was cultivated
by Vincenzo Monaci in going back to his own origins with his
wife Mariagrazia Schwendimann.
After a career as entrepreneur and manager of the industry
he has committed himself to the field of culture becoming the
president of the prestigious Eliseo Theatre in Rome and has
given himself up to the rediscovery of his own roots by giving
birth to a suggestive relais among the hills of Maremma.
The Locanda del Glicine has blown just like a flower right
in the hearth of Tuscany among medieval walls and and the remains
of Etruscan culture of the ancient village of Campagnatico,
set in a natural scenery which
is rich and plentiful, a place where the rhythm of human life
is still being marked on the changing season.
The guests of the Monaci family are part of an ideal: the taste
of living in harmony.
In the costy and welcoming atmosphere of the reading room where
the comfort of the modern armchairs meets the antique in sight
beams it may happen to hear either the greats of the prose
of the ballad-singers from Maremma. Right in the harmony between
the experimentation of modern solutions and the belonging to
ancient traditions lives the very secret of this unique alchemy
of tastes, perfumes and colours...
