Villa Montemaggio

The Tuscan sun soaks into the stone walls of this 17th-century farmhouse—and into the grapes clustered in the organic vineyards in the surrounding Chianti countryside. The Roman road from Siena to Florence once traced these hills; today, they’re home to the 70-hectare Montemaggio estate, which produces organic wine and olive oil. Siena is 40 minutes away by modern road; Florence, 1 hour. Smell the flowers in the gardens, pick fresh mulberries and figs to snack on, and see if you and the kids can find the playhouse hidden away on the estate’s grounds. There’s a private gym for workouts, a swimming pool for refreshment, and a rooftop terrace just made for the evening’s first bottle of local wine. While the villa still has some of its 17th-century farmhouse charm—spot beamed ceilings, doorways framed in elaborate molding, and a wide hearth on the living room fireplace—it’s been fully renovated. A pair of plump sofas invites you to stay a while in the living room, and there are plenty of chairs around the dining table that takes center stage in the fully equipped kitchen. Learn more about the Montemaggio estate by booking a cooking class, featuring fresh produce from the gardens, or a wine tour. Be sure to ask about the festivals in nearby villages, which range from celebrations of wine to a fete dedicated to bruschetta. Beyond Tuscany’s medieval towns and fortresses, the cities of Siena and Florence are close enough for a day trip. Copyright © Luxury Retreats. All rights reserved.
