Dining Under the Stars": Discover EnoRistrò's Menu
Summer in Tuscany brings with it the desire for long evenings and authentic flavors. If you are looking for a gastronomic experience that blends the magic of a historic location with excellent cuisine, the perfect date awaits you at EnoRistrò, the restaurant inside the Hotel della Fortezza in Sorano.
With the arrival of the warm season, our culinary experience moves outdoors for dining under the stars. On our splendid panoramic outdoor terrace, framed by thousand-year-old medieval walls and overlooking the suggestive Etruscan Valley, dinner becomes an unforgettable sensory journey.
At the heart of this experience is our menu. Our chef wanted to pay homage to traditional Maremma cuisine, stripping it of its rustic guise to dress it in elegance, modernity, and lightness. Each course tells a story of the territory, reinterpreted with contemporary techniques and unique pairings.
The focus is entirely on the dishes, designed to surprise both lovers of Maremma’s bold flavors and those looking for a refined dining experience:
The Fortress Appetizers: It starts with creations that play on contrasts, such as baked pears with cheese, honey, and hazelnut granola (a perfect balance between sweet and savory) or our spectacular Fortezza Tartare, hand-cut beef embellished with a red wine reduction, caper leaves, caramelized onion, and pear.
First Courses Between Earth and Memory: Classics are not to be missed, such as Pici all’aglione, served according to the local tradition but enhanced by a modern pasteurized garlic oil. Don’t miss the Sorano Tortelli, stuffed with leek and potato cream, bread crumble, and crispy rigatino bacon: local tradition turned into texture and harmony.
Main Courses and Pure Flavor: Meat, the queen of the Tuscan table, is celebrated through slow and expert cooking. Examples include beef cheek braised in Ciliegiolo (a quintessential native grape variety) accompanied by mashed potatoes and leek chips, or lamb with thyme deglazed with Martini Dry. For those who prefer a fresh, vegetarian option, the warm-hearted Tuscan Pecorino Flan with bittersweet salad offers a perfect summer balance.
Artisanal Desserts: To conclude on a sweet note, the Chef proposes the Sorano Ricotta Mousse with pine nuts, honey, and biscuit crumble, or the refreshing Fortezza Tiramisù.
The secret of our kitchen lies not only in the skill of our Chef but in the absolute quality of the raw materials. At EnoRistrò, we have made Km 0 (farm-to-table) and the circular economy a true mission.
We work closely with local producers, selecting cheeses from local shepherds (such as Tenuta il Radichino), artisanal cured meats (such as Salumificio Ercolani), and the famous Legumes of the Tuff Towns cultivated with respect for the land. This direct bond allows us to support the local economy, eliminate transport emissions, and guarantee fresh ingredients in the dish that change according to the natural rhythm of the seasons.
Furthermore, the hotel itself actively participates in this ecosystem: we directly produce our organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil and our innovative wines (an organic white and rosè) that guests can taste during dinner or discover during guided tours in the historical cellar of the Fortress.
