The Christmas season always brings the same question: what should I give as a gift this year?
Many people are looking for something easy to buy, useful for the recipient, and that does not require weeks of advance planning. At Magazzino Dianella, we have created a practical solution, suitable both for well-organized gifts and for last-minute ones: gift vouchers and ready-made Christmas boxes.
In this article you will find a clear overview of what we offer in December, how our vouchers work, what is included in the Christmas Catalogue, and the opening hours of our shop in Empoli–Spicchio Sovigliana.
Why a gift voucher is a good idea (especially last minute)
The main advantage is flexibility. The person receiving the voucher can choose when to come, which experience to enjoy, and who to share it with. It is not an object to leave in a drawer, but an opportunity to enjoy a pleasant moment among wine, good food, and a place that tells the story of Tuscany.
Magazzino Dianella is the urban reference point of our agricultural estate. It is located at Via Pietramarina 107, in Spicchio-Sovigliana (Empoli), and was created to bring the flavors and products of Villa Dianella, a historic Medici estate on the hills of Vinci, into the city.
Here you can purchase organic wines, new olive oil, honey, natural grape-based cosmetics, and many products from Dianella’s garden and kitchen. In December, the shop is enriched with Christmas gift boxes, gift ideas, and seasonal proposals.
How our gift vouchers work
The vouchers are available in paper or digital format, making them ideal even for immediate gifts.
They are valid for 12 months and can be personalized.
Available options
- Lunch Voucher at Magazzino
Valid for a lunch from our kitchen, based on seasonal dishes and produce from the Villa Dianella garden. The menu changes weekly and includes soups, homemade focaccia, and warm dishes prepared by our chef.
It is a simple and very popular gift for those living nearby. - Bistrot Dinner Voucher
In the evening, Magazzino becomes our bistrot: an intimate atmosphere, a few tables, and Tuscan cuisine with a contemporary touch.
A suitable gift idea for couples or friends who want a relaxing experience without leaving the Empoli area. - Sunday Brunch Voucher
Brunch is one of the most requested experiences of the year: a journey through savory and sweet dishes, homemade cakes, cheeses, eggs, seasonal vegetables, and recipes that change every week.
It is an informal gift that works well for families and groups. - Wine Tasting Voucher at Villa Dianella (Vinci)
For those looking for something different, this voucher offers a visit to the historic Medici cellars followed by a tasting of three or more organic wines from Fattoria Dianella.
It is designed for wine lovers or anyone interested in discovering the local territory. - Cooking Lesson Voucher – for 4 people
The Cooking Lesson Voucher is one of the most original Christmas gifts, combining experience, conviviality, and authentic Tuscan cooking.
It is designed for those who want to enjoy a hands-on and engaging activity while discovering the flavors of Fattoria Dianella.
The lesson begins in the farm’s garden with a short harvest of seasonal ingredients and continues in the kitchen, where participants – provided with aprons, utensils, and tools – prepare a complete menu inspired by Tuscan tradition.
The experience lasts about 3 hours and takes place in an informal, family-style atmosphere.
Once ready, the dishes are enjoyed together, with the option to pair them with Dianella wines.
The voucher includes: Cooking class for 4 people, lunch with the dishes prepared, 1 bottle of Chianti Dianella.
Valid from January 7 to June 30, 2026. - Product Voucher – open value
Allows the purchase of wine, olive oil, honey, natural cosmetics, and all the specialties available at Magazzino.
A practical option when you are unsure of the recipient’s preferences.
