This festival will cheer up the long autumn nights and for you will be an unforgettable emotion walking among the streets of the picturesque old village at the food of Sassoforte Castle.

You will be struck by the intensity of perfumes coming from the open doors of illuminated cellars .
Flavous of roast chestnuts, boiled marrons with wild fennel, chestnut cake, bruschette on which the aroma of extra virgin olive oil triumphs, cold pressed as used in Maremma. An oil with an intense green colour, with a fruity and spicy flavour, is a symbol for autumn rites celebrated in front of lighted fireplaces, of which are protagonists new wine and first marrons, roasted on fire.

On burning braziers you will see roasting the "rostinciana" of lamb and pig. On laid tables you will find game and mushrooms croutons, our fresh cheese, buttery and delicate such as rovaggiolo and ricotta, pecorino cheese, savoury and spicy, near to ham and wild boar sausages, and "porchetta" which continues the ancient Roman custom.

The doors of the cellars will open for you, showing the ceramic, wood and glass works of art made by artisans. Near the works of most famous artists, such painters, sculptors and decorators coming from "outside" you will find the ones made by the artists from "here" , who cotinue ancient traditions , as stone works, with old passion.
