As long as you view Procacci as a wine bar or food shop then it is well worth a visit. It does, however, fall short in the snacks that it serves despite the hype. Yes, there are truffle sandwiches but these taste very commercial to us.We tried the Bolgheri Vermentino 2005 by Antinori which was one of four whites and four reds served by the glass. The wines served by the glass are arranged on the shelf according to the price per glass.One of the treasures that we have bought here are Amedei chocolates. These are made not far from Florence and are a wonderful example of chocolate making. The beans selected are the finest possible, the conching is done with skill and the final product is not overwhelmed with sugar. This chocolate is well-worth seeking out.
