Enoteca I Terzi

Siena


Close to the Campo but off the well-beaten tourist trail, this enoteca (wine bar) is located in a vaulted medieval building but has a contemporary feel. It's popular with sophisticated locals, who linger over working lunches, aperitivo sessions and slow-paced dinners featuring Tuscan salumi (cured meats), delicate handmade pasta, grilled meats and wonderful wines (many available by the glass).
