Tucked away
A place apart: the property is the destination.
The hilltop town of Montepulciano sits ten minutes away, leaving the surrounding lanes to vineyards and olive groves.
The rooms
Rooms keep their exposed timber beams and hardwood floors, with windows looking straight across the vines.
The pool
Bring a swimsuit.
The outdoor infinity pool sits beside olive groves, with an integrated hydromassage jacuzzi looking across the estate vineyards.
The spa
Inside the private spa suite, a Finnish sauna and Turkish bath open onto a quiet relaxation lounge.
At the table
Michelin-starred Osmosi serves contemporary Italian dishes under timber beams, backed by a cellar of three thousand bottles.
How it began
Six friends bought the estate in 2017, restoring its nineteenth-century cellars and converting the farmhouse into a hotel.
