About Pienza
Pienza is the rare Tuscan hill town that rewards a first visit with both beauty and flavor: a Renaissance piazza built to a pope's vision, pecorino aged in the surrounding countryside, and Val d'Orcia views opening at every lane's end. For a first taste of the region, the Val d'Orcia Day Trip: Brunello Wine, Montepulciano & Pienza pairs wine country with these streets, while the Pienza: Tuscan Cooking Class of Homemade Pastas and Cantucci puts the town's food culture directly in your hands.
