One of the city’s most unique aspects is that the city is a historical wine making facility. Every building in the historic center has a wine cantina (wine aging cellar), many of which are open to public view. The traditional wine, the Vino Nobile di Montepulciano, has been produced and documented since the 1300’s and has the highest quality designation of all wine types in Italy. Great day trip destinations include some of the regions most famous towns like, Pienza, Montalcino, Cortona, Siena, and Arezzo. The village of Sant Albino di Montepulciano is four kilometers from the villa and offers thermal spas, grocery stores, butcher shop, bars, and restaurants.
