History
In its prime, the Estate was totally self sufficient, with farmhouses used for making cheese, honey, a trout farm, animal storage and vineyards. It is said that the Villa was built on solid, granite rock where there was once a house dating back to Roman times. All set amidst the "Apuane Alpe" nature park famous for their funghi porcini and wild game in the autumn months.

This very attractive villa was originally built in the second half of the 19th century, and has been completely renovated throughout. The views from the property are like a picture of typical Chianti landscape, rich with gently rolling hills covered with vineyards and olive groves. Only 4 kms away from Greve in Chianti, Montoro is an ideal base for sightseeing and trips in the Chianti area and to both the larger Tuscan cities, like Florence and Siena, and the smaller towns. Within the well-maintained fenced garden with trees and flower beds, there is a swimming pool, surrounded by a terrace. Its structure makes Montoro suitable also for children. The interiors of the house are furnished with comfortable, traditional furniture, antiques and there is a very well-equipped kitchen and modern bathrooms. A wireless LAN network has been installed at the property for guests who wish to access internet during their stay. The property also has SKY cable television which allows guests to view movies, news and cartoons in English.

This beautiful property belongs to the Campalli estate, a huge farm of 750 acres that produces Chianti Classico wine, and includes the Castle of Campalli. La Corte di Campalli is an impressive stone-built farmhouse that dates back to the 16th century. It takes its name from the striking internal courtyard around which it was built. The property was totally restored in 2002 by its discerning owners, who used authentic traditional materials of the area and equipped it with all modern facilities. The interiors are particularly airy and spacious, with doors both to the courtyard and to the garden. A local woman will be happy to provide exquisite cooking services with Tuscan specialities, that all clients have greatly enjoyed. Guided tours of the estate and the castle, including Tuscan wine tasting, can also be arranged.
