Our farm is located in the heart of the Chianti Classico region near Greve, in an untouched natural setting, looking out over Montefioralle, a splendid medieval village. It is on the top of a hill (1400 feet above sea level) with a magnificent 360 °view. Even in the summer a fresh breeze keeps it cool. The property includes a cluster of five houses that once served as a stopping place on the ancient salt road (there's still a trace of the road in the path which goes by the pool) as well as approximately ten hectares (twenty acres) of land, including four hectares of vineyards, an olive grove, a stand of cypress trees, a meadow and a woods. When we bought the farm in 1994, it was semi abandoned and the buildings were in terrible disrepair. Since then we have dedicated ourselves to restoring them as closely as possible to their original form, using only local and environmentally compatible materials and personally supervising every phase and every detail of the restoration. We are strongly committed to respecting the environment and to maintaining the natural setting. We achieved a dream of ours in 2008 when we installed a small solar array on the edge of the property. The panels supply our energy needs.
