A Taste of Tuscany in Virginia
For adults 21 and older craving Italian meals, experiences, and tastings.
February 6-8, 2026
As the cold of winter starts to get old and you crave connection and getting out of the house, the Marriott Ranch becomes the perfect place to escape and be transported to Tuscany for the weekend.
This may not be a Tuscan villa, but the charming mansion and inviting farmhouse offer a similar, communal experience that our guests cherish in our Tuscany villas. Spend cozy evenings in your private guest room or by the outdoor fire pit, sip award-winning wines paired perfectly with Italian delicacies, enjoy tasting the unique flavors of Italian olive oil, and imagine yourself in Tuscany through the stories told by our special Italian guests.
Each day you are immersed in experiences led by real Italians who live locally and are passionate about sharing their culture, traditions, and culinary delights with you. Every moment is designed to deepen your connection to Italy.
