Montalcino
IN THE HEART OF VAL D'ORCIA
Everything around us encompasses the spectacular landscape of the Tuscan hills, the Val d’Orcia, and the Crete Senesi. Nature reigns over the vineyards of Sangiovese, olive orchards, cultivated fields, and old stone farmhouses.
Montalcino, a typical medieval village recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2004, maintains its fascination from atop the hill with its history and city walls, ancient gates and towers, 14th-century fortress, the Palazzo dei Priori, loggias, cathedrals, monasteries, and frescoed cloisters. Its narrow streets and squares conceal shops selling typical food and crafts, wine bars, and restaurants.
