Scenic drive from Florence to Ghivizzano.

My wife and I are landing in Florence at 11:20am on July 27 and picking up a rental car. We will be staying at Casa La Pace in Ghivizzano and would like to take a scenic drive to get there with maybe a stop for lunch in the country. Google Maps shows me a route taking the Autostrad to just outside of Lucca and then ss12 and sr445 along the Sergio River to Ghivizzano. We are familiar with the route between Lucca and Ghivizzano from our last trip to Tuscany in 2010. We would like to take a more mountainous/scenic route and stop for lunch on the way. Any recommendations? Our check-in time is 3pm, but we really have all afternoon to get there. We thought about hanging around and seeing a bit of Florence first, but we would rather go back when we are more rested and have more time.
 
Thank you

Thank you for your reply. We are very interested in experiencing the wine in the region also, so this sounds like a better alternative.
