Hello there.

Welcome to Enoteca Marilu. Born during the pandemic, and from a passion for sharing good food and wine, we are a husband and wife team – a sommelier and a cookbook author – who strive to have the most interesting selection of excellent Italian wines that happen to be 'natural'.

Our dream is to turn this into a brick and mortar shop in our beloved Tuscan village, San Miniato, which lies strategically between Florence, Siena, Pisa and Lucca, and is a mecca for gastronomes, particularly in the late autumn when local white truffles are in season. It will be a base for food and wine tastings, events such as meet the producer dinners, and eventually a wine club and wine subscription service, a place where we can share with you a taste of all the things we love.

Who are our ideal customers? They are people who care about the provenance and quality of their food and wine, who are curious and want to learn more about what they are drinking and about regional Italian cuisine. They are the same kind of people who are interested in Slow Food and Slow Travel, knowing and caring where their food and drink comes from and how the plants and soil are treated before, during and after wine making. I hope you’ll enjoy what we have on offer.

Emiko and Marco x
