From there, the path leads to Monteriggioni, a small medieval fortress whose imposing walls stand as a unique emblem of Tuscan defense architecture, perched high above undulating hills.

But no Tuscan escapade would be complete without tasting its celebrated Chianti wines. Guests are welcomed into a renowned vineyard to savor signature blends crafted from Sangiovese grapes, pairing them with handcrafted local cheeses and cured meats. The wine's bright cherry notes and earthy depth mirror the landscape's rugged charm.
