The Best Tuscan Wineries to Visit Near Florence, Italy

"A medieval village reborn as a Relais & Châteaux destination, this property blends refined hospitality with deep regional roots in Chianti Classico: an Albergo Diffuso hotel anchors the village, while the Poggio Rosso restaurant (Michelin star and a green star) showcases creative yet tradition-respecting cuisine under the oversight of Enrico Bartolini and chef de cuisine Juan Camilo Quintero. The estate’s holistic philosophy extends into social projects such as Orto e L’Aia, which supplies ingredients and meaningful work, and its wine history—dating back centuries and including the launch of Vigorello, an early local Super Tuscan—remains central; Vigorello itself is a rich, enveloping wine that nevertheless retains refinement." - Federico De Cesare Viola
