Tuscan XXX, located a few minutes from Montalcino, is a beautiful farmhouse surrounded by a large private ground on a wine and olive oil producing estate; it sits on a hilltop dominating wonderful views. Great care was taken to maintain the original structure intact while providing complete modern comfort. The house offers two comfortable residences, which can be rented separately. Both units are furnished in a high standard with original old Tuscan pieces: whitewashed and stonewalls, terracotta floors and wood-beamed ceilings provide the typical Tuscan atmosphere. Wine tasting at the famous winery “Castello di Romitorio” and cooking classes are available upon request in the separate “kitchen/wine lounge” situated on the premises. Located in the heart of Montalcino vineyards, very close to the town historical center, Tuscan XXX is the ideal retreat for Wine& Food lovers.
Not to be missed in your area: the visit to Castello Romitorio winery and the towns of Montalcino & Pienza: Enjoy private visits and prestigious wine tasting at Castello di Romitorio estate owned by famous artist Sandro Chia and Tuscan XXX management. While visiting the famous wine producing town of Montalcino and the artistic jewel of Pienza you will be fascinated by their charm and history. In 1555 Montalcino became the last bastion of the proud Sienese Republic before it succumbed to the Florentines and was absorbed into the Grand Duchy of Tuscany . This accounts for its imposing fortress and the wealth of superb paintings and sculptures that make its beautifully renovated Museum such a remarkable attraction. As for Pienza , it was built between 1458 and 1462 at the behest of Enea Silvio Piccolomini , who decided to turn his hometown into a jewel of Renaissance architecture when he became Pope Pius II (hence the name "Pienza").
While other parts of Tuscany have developed industries that have done much the economy but little for the landscape, the area of the"Crete Senesi" and the neighboring "Val d'Orcia" have largely remained true to their early agricultural vocation. Today this means local products of outstanding quality, made with traditional methods and skills that are handed down from father to son. The best-known of these are doubtless Montalcino's distinguished Brunello red wine and the Vino Nobile of Montepulciano, both of which accompany to perfection dishes based on the game that is so common in the area: pheasant, quail, hare, wild boar. Likewise, the Pecorino cheeses made with ewe's milk from the Pienza pastures are now in great demand.
