"This Chianti Classico estate pairs exceptional wines with an ambitious contemporary art program, featuring site-specific installations by internationally renowned artists that are intended to be born from and inseparable from the place. Visitors can taste wines and explore individual vineyards such as Bellavista, La Casuccia and San Lorenzo, stay in refined suites in the historic Villa Ricucci, and dine with locally minded cuisine at the estate restaurant; the Ark reception and its cellar—home to a vast library of historical vintages—anchor the visitor experience. The estate’s Chianti Classico Riserva bottlings, including the Montebuoni riserva, exemplify the elegant Sangiovese character the property champions." - Federico De Cesare Viola
