This family-run natural wine bar and bistro isn’t where you come to solely drink fruity gamays or other carbonic macerated pours. It’s a part of Florence’s new wave of modern wine bistros that serve Tuscan food with a sprinkling of French. Think whipped baccala spread on toasted brioche, fresh pastas rolled out in-house and tossed with juniper-accented hare ragu, wine-braised beef cheek, and sourdough instead of the usual saltless Tuscan bread served around town. Spontanea’s warmly lit dining room with eccentric ’70s retro details has a handful of tables typically full of locals laughing, chatting, and knocking back glasses, and it’s generally pretty cheery in here. It works for either a full meal or an apertivo hour—whenever you come by, say hi to Nicola (the owner and somm) and always trust his wine recommendations.
