About The Experience

This location is for those who have always wanted to stay in the midst of a famous wine estate in the Chianti Classico. The farmhouse, on a hill overlooking the main complex, houses the 7 Rosso apartments with a shared pool. Down the hill there is a trattoria, reception office, another pool and a tennis court. If you are a wine lover, it is hard to imagine a better place to stay!

Location Description

Located on a famous wine estate in the Chianti Classico area, this is a beautifully renovated and restored stone hamlet with views of vineyards and rolling hills. The hamlet is located two kilometers from the small town of Montefiridolfi which offers basic shops. It is conveniently located midway between the cities of Florence and Siena and close to the unofficial capital of the Chianti region: Greve in Chianti. Greve is a wonderful small town overlooked by the Castle of Montefioralle. Visit Piazza Matteotti for an espresso and explore the shops or pick up some local produce at the Saturday morning market. If you’re traveling in late summer or fall, expect to stumble upon food and wine festivals held regularly in the town. Traveling by car from this location is convenient as the exit from the Superstrada is in Tavernelle Val di Pesa.
