"At Castello Banfi Wine Resort, the 14-room boutique hotel is only the keep to this Tuscan castle-on-a-hill — the castello is the headquarters of the working wine estate, while the borgo is the boutique hotel that’s been fashioned from the adjoining village buildings. If the property ended at the sandstone walls, it would still be a must-visit for anyone passing through the countryside near Siena. Thankfully, there’s also the small matter of a nearly two-thousand-acre vineyard, sloping gently down from the fortress to meet the surrounding valley — and it’s worth knowing that your stay includes a tasting, a vineyard and winery tour with the sommelier, and a discount at the hotel’s wine shop." - Tablet Hotels
