Vigne is a recently renovated 18th-century stone farmhouse located on a working wine estate, surrounded by lush vineyards and a panoramic view of the verdant Montalcino and Monte Amiata hills. An exquisite garden in front of the villa is home to four of the oldest oak trees in Tuscany. New interiors and modern amenities compliment the warm wood and marble surfaces, wood-beamed ceilings, plush upholstered furniture, rich artwork, and romantic alcoves.
Vigne’s interior is a blend of sophistication and old-world style. The ground floor has a sitting room warmed by an ancient stone fireplace, antiques, and a rustic wood table that can seat up to 10 guests. The spacious, fully equipped kitchen with 8-burner cook stove, microwave, and dishwasher is highlighted by a marble tabletop and sink that is made of the traditional 'pietra serena.' There are three bedrooms in the main house, each with their own bathroom. In an annex close to the farmhouse, there is an extra bedroom, with a pull-out sofa bed that can sleep children or staff, and a private bathroom. Relax on the white stone patio in front, beside the infinity-edged outdoor swimming pool, and enjoy the endless views of the rolling hills.
Vigne, situated in Italy's most prestigious grape-growing area of the classic Brunello, is a perfect retreat for wine lovers and enthusiasts. The villa offers a complimentary, private wine tasting at the estate’s joint winery, about 90 minutes away. Tour the on-site wine cellar and enjoy a private tasting at the villa, depending on staff availability.

Perhaps the greatest beauty of this age-old villa is its private location, nestled amidst a lush vineyard. A complimentary wine tasting can be arranged for guests of Vigne at the estate’s joint winery, located about one hour and a half away. Wine enthusiasts can tour the on-site wine cellar at their leisure or a private wine tasting can be arranged at the property for guests’ convenience, depending upon staff availability.
What to do in the southern region of Tuscany:
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. Pienza 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 for the economy but little for the landscape, the Crete Senesi area 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 are the perfect complement to dishes based on the wild game of the area: pheasant, quail, hare, and wild boar. Likewise, the Pecorino cheeses made with ewe's milk from the Pienza pastures are now in great demand.
