This enchanting and very romantic small villa set upon a hill
is part of an hamlet with houses and castle. A particular care
in the restoration was taken to recreate, where possible, the
ancient style using only the original stonework. The hamlet
is perched on a hill overlooking the castle of Montefioralle,
the birthplace of Amerigo Vespucci and one of the most ancient
villages in Chianti. The cool passageways and overarching houses
of Montefioralle provide one of the best surviving examples
of mediaeval rural village architecture in Tuscany..
Greve is approximately a fifteen-minute drive (walking on paths
through the country only less than 1 km) with a multitude of
shops selling a range of handicrafts, food and some of the best
wines in Tuscany. Panzano in Chianti is a ten minute drive downhill
and has some delightful restaurants and bars.
The area surrounding Greve is filled with beautiful Chianti
countryside and picturesque towns. It also enjoys a great location
for day trips throughout Tuscany and surely is the most picturesque
part of the Chianti Classico, midway between Florence and Siena,
