"I explored the historic Ferragamo estate encompassing a medieval hamlet reimagined as a captivating boutique hotel." - La Guida Michelin
"At the heart of the sprawling San Giustino Valdarno estate, this 1848 villa built by a prince is ringed by a traditional Italian garden and spoils guests with a heated pool, fitness room, Turkish bath, sauna, billiards and sweeping views over a fully restored medieval village." - The MICHELIN Guide
"A splurge-worthy estate in nearby San Giustino Valdarno, owned by Ferruccio Ferragamo, it’s “the luxury Tuscan stay to end all others” and well worth the indulgence." - Mary Gray
"Restored by the Ferragamo family beginning in 1993, this fully rebuilt medieval borgo sits amid more than 1,100 hectares of organic farmland where vines sit alongside vegetable gardens, fruit trees, beehives, cheese production and free-range eggs. Wine production ranges from top-notch Valdarno di Sopra DOC reds (Sangiovese and international varieties) to whites and an impressive sparkling rosé, Bolle di Borro; a standout bottle to sample is the Petruna, a 100% Sangiovese. The village itself houses 38 suites, artisan shops and several restaurants—from a casual poolside pizzeria to an elegant flagship osteria—while chef Andrea Campani sources estate produce for precise, seasonally driven dishes; booking a cooking class with his team is highly recommended." - Federico De Cesare Viola
"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
