The morning light spills across the ridgeline as riders mount at a working farm on Monte Labro, the air cool where the hill rises above 1,000 meters. Horses shift beneath nervous hands; a guide briefs the group, then the herd moves off along grassy tracks that open to wide views over the Maremma — olive groves, scrub, and distant sea.
