Additional Information

Not to be missed: a visit to Castello Romitorio winery and the towns of Montalcino & Pienza. Enjoy private visits and prestigious wine tasting at Castello di Romitorio estate owned by famous artist Sandro Chia and Il Vigneto management. While visiting the famous wine producing town of Montalcino and the artistic jewel of Pienza you will be fascinated by their charm and history. In 1555, Montalcino became the last bastion of the proud Sienese Republic before it succumbed to the Florentines and was absorbed into the Grand Duchy of Tuscany. This accounts for its imposing fortress and the wealth of superb paintings and sculptures that make its beautifully renovated Museum such a remarkable attraction.

Pienza was built between 1458 and 1462 at the behest of Enea Silvio Piccolomini , who decided to turn his hometown into a jewel of Renaissance architecture when he became Pope Pius II (hence the name "Pienza").

While other parts of Tuscany have developed industries that have done much the economy but little for the landscape, the area of the"Crete Senesi" and the neighboring "Val d'Orcia" have largely remained true to their early agricultural vocation. Today this means local products of outstanding quality, made with traditional methods and skills that are handed down from father to son. The best-known of these are doubtless Montalcino's distinguished Brunello red wine and the Vino Nobile of Montepulciano, both of which accompany to perfection dishes based on the game that is so common in the area: pheasant, quail, hare, wild boar. Likewise, the Pecorino cheeses made with ewe's milk from the Pienza pastures are now in great demand.
