"Housed in a restored 13th-century Tuscan castle and operated as a Relais & Châteaux estate, this property underwent a careful renovation to marry traditional Tuscan architecture with contemporary comforts while converting gardens, farms, and vineyards to organic management. Owned by the Ferragamo family, the estate sources many ingredients for its on-site osteria from its own gardens and farms, runs on renewable energy, and offers a range of restored suites, villas, and farmhouses where guests can enjoy well-regarded organic wines—primarily Sangiovese—by the pool, at dinner, or beside a cozy fireplace." - Lauren Mowery
